About 06104A6
06104A6 is the ICD-10-PCS code for a bypass procedure on the inferior vena cava using a percutaneous endoscopic approach with autologous arterial tissue (qualifier: inferior mesenteric vein). In ICD-10-PCS, bypass means altering the route of passage of the contents of a tubular body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to intra-abdominal venous shunt, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (39.1).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 06100A6 (open).
With a different device, use 0610476 (autologous tissue substitute), 0610496 (autologous venous tissue), 06104J6 (synthetic substitute), 06104K6 (nonautologous tissue substitute) and 06104Z6 (no 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) and DRG 272 (Other Major Cardiovascular Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical category “Other Major Cardiovascular Procedures”.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
