About the 04B Code Range

The ICD-10-PCS root operation Excision (code 04B) involves cutting out or off a portion of a body part. Specifically, this operation targets the Lower Arteries within the Medical and Surgical section, where part of an artery is removed either for treatment or diagnostic purposes.

This Excision of Lower Arteries can be performed through various approaches such as Open, Percutaneous, and Percutaneous Endoscopic. Examples include excising the Abdominal Aorta (codes 04B00ZZ for open approach and 04B03ZZ for percutaneous), the Celiac Artery (codes 04B10ZZ and 04B13ZZ), or the Right Femoral Artery (codes 04BK0ZZ open and 04BK3ZZ percutaneous). Some codes also indicate diagnostic procedures (ending in ZX), which involve partial removal for examination. Proper use of these codes is crucial for accurately documenting the excision procedures of specific lower arteries by the chosen surgical approach.
