Cerebral ischaemic stroke due to other non-atherosclerotic arteriopathy

Definition

This is a sudden loss of brain function due to a lack of adequate blood flow. It is due to a disorder of the arteries, but it is neither associated with atherosclerosis nor classified elsewhere.

Coding note

If an additional code is used for anatomy, the artery affected by the stroke should be selected.
