About 05LY3ZZ
05LY3ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a occlusion procedure on the upper 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 other surgical occlusion of vessels, unspecified site, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (38.80).
For a different body part, codes include 05L03ZZ (azygos vein), 05L13ZZ (hemiazygos vein), 05L33ZZ (right innominate vein), 05L43ZZ (left innominate vein), 05L53ZZ (right subclavian vein), 05L63ZZ (left subclavian vein) and 19 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 05LY0ZZ (open) and 05LY4ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic).
With a different device, use 05LY3CZ (extraluminal device) and 05LY3DZ (intraluminal device).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 252 (Other Vascular Procedures with MCC), DRG 253 (Other Vascular Procedures with CC), DRG 254 (Other Vascular Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 907 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with MCC), DRG 908 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with CC) and DRG 909 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Other Vascular Procedures”, “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.
