I24.0: Coronary thrombosis not resulting in myocardial infarction

A blood vessel in your heart has closed up. This has not damaged the tissue in the heart.

The heart is supplied with oxygen-rich blood via the coronary arteries. The coronary arteries are blood vessels that run around the outside of the heart.

A blood vessel in your heart has been blocked by a blood clot. The vessel getting blocked has not damaged your heart muscle tissue.

  • G: Confirmed diagnosis
  • V: Tentative diagnosis
  • Z: Condition after
  • A: Excluded diagnosis
  • L: Left
