About 06LM4ZZ
06LM4ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a occlusion procedure on the right femoral vein using a percutaneous endoscopic 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 other surgical occlusion of vessels, lower limb veins, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (38.89).
For a different body part, codes include 06L04ZZ (inferior vena cava), 06L14ZZ (splenic vein), 06L24ZZ (gastric vein), 06L34ZZ (esophageal vein), 06L44ZZ (hepatic vein), 06L54ZZ (superior mesenteric vein) and 17 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 06LM0ZZ (open) and 06LM3ZZ (percutaneous).
With a different device, use 06LM4CZ (extraluminal device) and 06LM4DZ (intraluminal device).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 263 (Vein Ligation and Stripping), DRG 907 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with MCC), DRG 908 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with CC), DRG 909 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries without CC/MCC), DRG 957 (Other O.R. Procedures for Multiple Significant Trauma with MCC) and DRG 958 (Other O.R. Procedures for Multiple Significant Trauma with CC), under the surgical categories “Vein Ligation and Stripping”, “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries” and “Other O.R. Procedures for Multiple Significant Trauma”.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
