About 05LC3CZ
05LC3CZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a occlusion procedure on the left basilic vein using a percutaneous 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, upper limb vessels, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (38.83).
For a different body part, codes include 05L03CZ (azygos vein), 05L13CZ (hemiazygos vein), 05L33CZ (right innominate vein), 05L43CZ (left innominate vein), 05L53CZ (right subclavian vein), 05L63CZ (left subclavian vein) and 19 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 05LC0CZ (open) and 05LC4CZ (percutaneous endoscopic).
With a different device, use 05LC3DZ (intraluminal device) and 05LC3ZZ (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), 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 O.R. Procedures for Injuries” and 1 more.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
