About 04VB3ZZ

04VB3ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a restriction procedure on the inferior mesenteric artery using a percutaneous approach. In ICD-10-PCS, restriction means partially closing an orifice or the lumen of a tubular body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to other endovascular procedures on other vessels, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (39.79).

For a different body part, codes include 04V03ZZ (abdominal aorta), 04V13ZZ (celiac artery), 04V23ZZ (gastric artery), 04V33ZZ (hepatic artery), 04V43ZZ (splenic artery), 04V53ZZ (superior mesenteric artery) and 24 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 04VB0ZZ (open) and 04VB4ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic).

With a different device, use 04VB3CZ (extraluminal device) and 04VB3DZ (intraluminal device).

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 673 (Other Kidney and Urinary Tract Procedures with MCC), DRG 674 (Other Kidney and Urinary Tract Procedures with CC) and DRG 675 (Other Kidney and Urinary Tract Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Other Major Cardiovascular Procedures”, “Other Kidney and Urinary Tract Procedures” and “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries”.

It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
