About 04740ZZ

04740ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a dilation procedure on the splenic artery using an open approach. In ICD-10-PCS, dilation means expanding an orifice or the lumen of a tubular body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to procedure on single vessel and angioplasty of other non-coronary vessel(s), the ICD-9-CM procedure titles it maps to (00.40 and 39.50).

For a different body part, codes include 04700ZZ (abdominal aorta), 04710ZZ (celiac artery), 04720ZZ (gastric artery), 04730ZZ (hepatic artery), 04750ZZ (superior mesenteric artery), 04760ZZ (right colic artery) and 24 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 04743ZZ (percutaneous) and 04744ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic).

With a different device, use 047404Z (intraluminal device, drug-eluting), 047405Z (intraluminal device, drug-eluting, two), 047406Z (intraluminal device, drug-eluting, three), 047407Z (intraluminal device, drug-eluting, four or more), 04740DZ (intraluminal device), 04740EZ (intraluminal device, two) and 2 more.
