About 069100Z

069100Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a drainage procedure on the splenic vein using an open approach with drainage device. In ICD-10-PCS, drainage means taking or letting out fluids and/or gases from a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to venous cutdown, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (38.94).

For a different body part, codes include 069000Z (inferior vena cava), 069200Z (gastric vein), 069300Z (esophageal vein), 069400Z (hepatic vein), 069500Z (superior mesenteric vein), 069600Z (inferior mesenteric vein) and 17 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 069130Z (percutaneous) and 069140Z (percutaneous endoscopic).

With a different device, use 06910ZZ (no device).

It doesn't appear in the MS-DRG procedure index, so on its own it doesn't change the DRG assignment.

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