About 06CB4ZZ
06CB4ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a extirpation procedure on the left renal vein using a percutaneous endoscopic approach. In ICD-10-PCS, extirpation means taking or cutting out solid matter from a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to incision of vessel, abdominal veins, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (38.07).
For a different body part, codes include 06C04ZZ (inferior vena cava), 06C14ZZ (splenic vein), 06C24ZZ (gastric vein), 06C34ZZ (esophageal vein), 06C44ZZ (hepatic vein), 06C54ZZ (superior mesenteric vein) and 17 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 06CB0ZZ (open) and 06CB3ZZ (percutaneous).
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), DRG 272 (Other Major Cardiovascular Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 673 (Other Kidney and Urinary Tract Procedures with MCC), DRG 674 (Other Kidney and Urinary Tract Procedures with CC) and DRG 675 (Other Kidney and Urinary Tract Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Other Major Cardiovascular Procedures” and “Other Kidney and Urinary Tract Procedures”.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
