About 04VL3CZ

04VL3CZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a restriction procedure on the left femoral artery using a percutaneous approach with extraluminal device. In ICD-10-PCS, restriction means partially closing an orifice or the lumen of a tubular body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to Clipping of aneurysm, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (39.51).

For a different body part, codes include 04V03CZ (abdominal aorta), 04V13CZ (celiac artery), 04V23CZ (gastric artery), 04V33CZ (hepatic artery), 04V43CZ (splenic artery), 04V53CZ (superior mesenteric artery) and 24 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 04VL0CZ (open) and 04VL4CZ (percutaneous endoscopic).

With a different device, use 04VL3DZ (intraluminal device) and 04VL3ZZ (no device).

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) and DRG 254 (Other Vascular Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical category “Other Vascular Procedures”.

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