About 05L50DZ
05L50DZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a occlusion procedure on the right subclavian vein using an open 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, thoracic vessels, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (38.85).
For a different body part, codes include 05L00DZ (azygos vein), 05L10DZ (hemiazygos vein), 05L30DZ (right innominate vein), 05L40DZ (left innominate vein), 05L60DZ (left subclavian vein), 05L70DZ (right axillary vein) and 19 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 05L53DZ (percutaneous) and 05L54DZ (percutaneous endoscopic).
With a different device, use 05L50CZ (extraluminal device) and 05L50ZZ (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.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
