38.49 is an ICD-9-CM procedure code for resection of vessel with replacement, lower limb veins. ICD-9-CM was retired for U.S. claims on October 1, 2015, when ICD-10-PCS took over.
The CMS General Equivalence Mappings translate it to 42 ICD-10-PCS codes, such as 06RM07Z (Replacement of Right Femoral Vein with Autologous Tissue Substitute, Open Approach), 06RM0JZ (Replacement of Right Femoral Vein with Synthetic Substitute, Open Approach) and 06RM0KZ (Replacement of Right Femoral Vein with Nonautologous Tissue Substitute, Open Approach). All of these are approximate matches, so review the record to pick the right one.
