ICD-10-PCS 024 Medical and Surgical: Heart and Great Vessels Creation

The ICD-10-PCS root operation Creation (code 024) involves the formation of a new anatomic structure that did not previously exist. This operation is categorized within the Medical and Surgical section and applies specifically to the Heart and Great Vessels body system in the provided data.

Creation often addresses congenital or acquired absence or defect by constructing new structures using various substitutes. For example, the codes illustrate the creation of heart valves such as the Aortic Valve from the Truncal Valve (codes like 024F07J for autologous tissue substitute and 024F0JJ for synthetic substitute) or the Mitral and Tricuspid Valves from the Common Atrioventricular Valve using similar tissues. These procedures utilize materials ranging from the patient's own tissue to synthetic or animal-derived (zooplastic) tissue, performed via an Open Approach. Employing accurate ICD-10-PCS creation codes ensures precise documentation of these complex cardiac reconstructive surgeries.

List of ICD-10-PCS codes used to specify 024 - Creation (making a new genital structure that does not take over the function of a body part). There are a total of 13 procedure codes in this section.
