About 04CS3ZZ
04CS3ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a extirpation procedure on the left posterior tibial artery using a percutaneous approach. In ICD-10-PCS, extirpation means taking or cutting out solid matter from a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to procedure on single vessel, atherectomy of other non-coronary vessel(s), Endarterectomy, lower limb arteries and 1 more, the ICD-9-CM procedure titles it maps to (00.40, 17.56, 38.18 and 1 more).
For a different body part, codes include 04C03ZZ (abdominal aorta), 04C13ZZ (celiac artery), 04C23ZZ (gastric artery), 04C33ZZ (hepatic artery), 04C43ZZ (splenic artery), 04C53ZZ (superior mesenteric artery) and 24 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 04CS0ZZ (open) and 04CS4ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 270 (Other Major Cardiovascular Procedures with MCC), DRG 271 (Other Major Cardiovascular Procedures with CC), DRG 272 (Other Major Cardiovascular Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 628 (Other Endocrine, Nutritional and Metabolic O.R. Procedures with MCC or Insertion of Antibiotic-eluting Bone Void Filler), DRG 629 (Other Endocrine, Nutritional and Metabolic O.R. Procedures with CC) and DRG 630 (Other Endocrine, Nutritional and Metabolic O.R. Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Other Major Cardiovascular Procedures”, “Other Endocrine, Nutritional and Metabolic O.R. Procedures”, “Lymphoma and Leukemia with Major O.R. Procedures” and 3 more.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
