About 03L43DZ
03L43DZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a occlusion procedure on the left subclavian artery using a percutaneous approach with intraluminal device. In ICD-10-PCS, occlusion means completely closing an orifice or the lumen of a tubular body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to other surgical occlusion of vessels, thoracic vessels, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (38.85).
For a different body part, codes include 03L03DZ (right internal mammary artery), 03L13DZ (left internal mammary artery), 03L23DZ (innominate artery), 03L33DZ (right subclavian artery), 03L53DZ (right axillary artery), 03L63DZ (left axillary artery) and 23 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 03L40DZ (open) and 03L44DZ (percutaneous endoscopic).
With a different device, use 03L43CZ (extraluminal device) and 03L43ZZ (no device).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 163 (Major Chest Procedures with MCC), DRG 164 (Major Chest Procedures with CC), DRG 165 (Major Chest Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 209 (Complex Aortic Arch Procedures), DRG 270 (Other Major Cardiovascular Procedures with MCC) and DRG 271 (Other Major Cardiovascular Procedures with CC), under the surgical categories “Major Chest Procedures”, “Complex Aortic Arch Procedures”, “Other Major Cardiovascular Procedures” and 2 more.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
