About 06QB0ZZ
06QB0ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a repair procedure on the left renal vein using an open approach. In ICD-10-PCS, repair means restoring, to the extent possible, a body part to its normal anatomic structure and function.
In plain terms, this corresponds to suture of vein, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (39.32).
For a different body part, codes include 06Q00ZZ (inferior vena cava), 06Q10ZZ (splenic vein), 06Q20ZZ (gastric vein), 06Q30ZZ (esophageal vein), 06Q40ZZ (hepatic vein), 06Q50ZZ (superior mesenteric vein) and 17 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 06QB3ZZ (percutaneous) and 06QB4ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic).
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.
