02VW0FZRestriction of Thoracic Aorta, Descending with Branched or Fenestrated Intraluminal Device, Three or More Arteries, Open Approach

02VW0FZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a restriction procedure on the thoracic aorta, descending using an open approach with intraluminal device, branched or fenestrated, three or more arteries. In ICD-10-PCS, restriction means partially closing an orifice or the lumen of a tubular body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to endovascular implantation of branching or fenestrated graft(s) in aorta, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (39.78).

For a different body part, codes include 02VX0FZ (thoracic aorta, ascending/arch).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 02VW3FZ (percutaneous) and 02VW4FZ (percutaneous endoscopic).

With a different device, use 02VW0CZ (extraluminal device), 02VW0DZ (intraluminal device), 02VW0EZ (intraluminal device, branched or fenestrated, one or two arteries) and 02VW0ZZ (no device).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 212 (Concomitant Aortic and Mitral Valve Procedures), DRG 216 (Cardiac Valve and Other Major Cardiothoracic Procedures with Cardiac Catheterization with MCC), DRG 217 (Cardiac Valve and Other Major Cardiothoracic Procedures with Cardiac Catheterization with CC), DRG 218 (Cardiac Valve and Other Major Cardiothoracic Procedures with Cardiac Catheterization without CC/MCC), DRG 219 (Cardiac Valve and Other Major Cardiothoracic Procedures without Cardiac Catheterization with MCC) and DRG 220 (Cardiac Valve and Other Major Cardiothoracic Procedures without Cardiac Catheterization with CC), under the surgical categories “Concomitant Aortic and Mitral Valve Procedures”, “”, “Cardiac Valve and Other Major Cardiothoracic Procedures without Cardiac Catheterization” and 3 more.

It was added in FY2017, effective October 1, 2016.
