About 05L40CZ
05L40CZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a occlusion procedure on the left innominate vein using an open approach with extraluminal 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, thoracic vessels, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (38.85).
For a different body part, codes include 05L00CZ (azygos vein), 05L10CZ (hemiazygos vein), 05L30CZ (right innominate vein), 05L50CZ (right subclavian vein), 05L60CZ (left subclavian vein), 05L70CZ (right axillary vein) and 19 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 05L43CZ (percutaneous) and 05L44CZ (percutaneous endoscopic).
With a different device, use 05L40DZ (intraluminal device) and 05L40ZZ (no device).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 163 (Major Chest Procedures with MCC), DRG 164 (Major Chest Procedures with CC), DRG 165 (Major Chest Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 270 (Other Major Cardiovascular Procedures with MCC), DRG 271 (Other Major Cardiovascular Procedures with CC) and DRG 272 (Other Major Cardiovascular Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Major Chest Procedures”, “Other Major Cardiovascular Procedures”, “Stomach, Esophageal and Duodenal Procedures” and 1 more.
