About 02VW3DZ

02VW3DZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a restriction procedure on the thoracic aorta, descending using a percutaneous approach with intraluminal device. 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 graft in thoracic aorta, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (39.73).

For a different body part, codes include 02VL3DZ (left ventricle), 02VP3DZ (pulmonary trunk), 02VQ3DZ (right pulmonary artery), 02VR3DZ (left pulmonary artery), 02VS3DZ (right pulmonary vein), 02VT3DZ (left pulmonary vein) and 2 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 02VW0DZ (open) and 02VW4DZ (percutaneous endoscopic).

With a different device, use 02VW3CZ (extraluminal device), 02VW3EZ (intraluminal device, branched or fenestrated, one or two arteries), 02VW3FZ (intraluminal device, branched or fenestrated, three or more arteries) and 02VW3ZZ (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 has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
