FAQ
Q21. 12 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes.
ICD-10 code Q21. 12 for Patent foramen ovale is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Congenital malformations, deformations and chromosomal abnormalities .
Definition. Patent foramen ovale (PFO) is a hole between the left and right atria (upper chambers) of the heart. This hole exists in everyone before birth, but most often closes shortly after being born. PFO is what the hole is called when it fails to close naturally after a baby is born.
However, although clinically very different, atrial septal defects (ASD) and patent foramen ovale (PFO) share a single diagnostic code (ICD-9: 745.5, ICD-10: Q21. 1).
†Patent foramen ovale (PFO) patients are assigned the same International Classification of Disease (ICD) codes (ICD-9: 745.5, ICD- 10: Q21. 1) as ostium secundum type atrial septal defects (ASD).
PFO means that you have a small opening between the right and left atria of the heart. This opening normally closes soon after birth. But in many people, it does not. PFO itself usually does not cause any symptoms. PFO can occasionally result in complications.

The condition is most important because it raises the risk of stroke. PFO's don't cause strokes. Blood clots can travel from the right atrium to the left atrium and out to blood vessels of the body. If the clot blocks a blood vessel in the brain, it can cause a stroke.
