About 05QS0ZZ

05QS0ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a repair procedure on the left vertebral 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).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 05QS3ZZ (percutaneous) and 05QS4ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 037 (Extracranial Procedures with MCC), DRG 038 (Extracranial Procedures with CC), DRG 039 (Extracranial Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 263 (Vein Ligation and Stripping), DRG 907 (Other O.R.
