About 06LB3ZZ
06LB3ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a occlusion procedure on the left renal vein using a percutaneous approach. In ICD-10-PCS, occlusion means completely closing an orifice or the lumen of a tubular body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to ligation of adrenal vessels and other surgical occlusion of vessels, abdominal veins, the ICD-9-CM procedure titles it maps to (07.43 and 38.87).
For a different body part, codes include 06L03ZZ (inferior vena cava), 06L13ZZ (splenic vein), 06L23ZZ (gastric vein), 06L33ZZ (esophageal vein), 06L43ZZ (hepatic vein), 06L53ZZ (superior mesenteric vein) and 17 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 06LB0ZZ (open) and 06LB4ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic).
With a different device, use 06LB3CZ (extraluminal device) and 06LB3DZ (intraluminal 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), DRG 272 (Other Major Cardiovascular Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 356 (Other Digestive System O.R. Procedures with MCC), DRG 357 (Other Digestive System O.R. Procedures with CC) and DRG 358 (Other Digestive System O.R. Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Other Major Cardiovascular Procedures”, “Other Digestive System O.R. Procedures”, “Adrenal and Pituitary Procedures” and 3 more.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
