About 04L03DZ
04L03DZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a occlusion procedure on the abdominal aorta 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, aorta, abdominal, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (38.84).
For a different body part, codes include 04L13DZ (celiac artery), 04L23DZ (gastric artery), 04L33DZ (hepatic artery), 04L43DZ (splenic artery), 04L53DZ (superior mesenteric artery), 04L63DZ (right colic artery) and 24 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 04L00DZ (open) and 04L04DZ (percutaneous endoscopic).
With a different device, use 04L03CZ (extraluminal device) and 04L03ZZ (no device).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 268 (Aortic and Heart Assist Procedures Except Pulsation Balloon with MCC), DRG 269 (Aortic and Heart Assist Procedures Except Pulsation Balloon without MCC), DRG 356 (Other Digestive System O.R. Procedures with MCC), DRG 357 (Other Digestive System O.R. Procedures with CC), DRG 358 (Other Digestive System O.R. Procedures without CC/MCC) and DRG 907 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with MCC), under the surgical categories “Aortic and Heart Assist Procedures Except Pulsation Balloon”, “Other Digestive System O.R. Procedures”, “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries” and 1 more.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
