About 04S44ZZ
04S44ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a reposition procedure on the splenic artery using a percutaneous endoscopic approach. In ICD-10-PCS, reposition means moving to its normal location, or other suitable location, all or a portion of a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to other repair of vessel, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (39.59).
For a different body part, codes include 04S04ZZ (abdominal aorta), 04S14ZZ (celiac artery), 04S24ZZ (gastric artery), 04S34ZZ (hepatic artery), 04S54ZZ (superior mesenteric artery), 04S64ZZ (right colic artery) and 24 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 04S40ZZ (open) and 04S43ZZ (percutaneous).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 252 (Other Vascular Procedures with MCC), DRG 253 (Other Vascular Procedures with CC), DRG 254 (Other Vascular 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 Vascular Procedures”, “Other Endocrine, Nutritional and Metabolic O.R. Procedures”, “Other Kidney and Urinary Tract Procedures” and 2 more.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
