About the 04C Code Range
These procedures remove solid matter from a lower artery. The matter may be lodged inside the artery or embedded in it.

The fifth character distinguishes an open approach from entry through a puncture or small incision, with or without endoscopic viewing. The sixth character is No Device, and the seventh is No Qualifier.
The Index lists atherectomy and endarterectomy as procedure names for this table.
