ICD-10-PCS 05B Medical and Surgical: Upper Veins Excision

The ICD-10-PCS root operation Excision (code starting with 05B) refers to the surgical removal of a portion or all of a body part. In the Medical and Surgical section, these codes specifically relate to the excision of veins in the upper body.

This operation involves removing parts of veins such as the Azygos Vein, Hemiazygos Vein, Right and Left Innominate Veins, Subclavian Veins, Axillary Veins, as well as smaller veins like the Basilic, Cephalic, Brachial, and Intracranial Veins. The procedure can be performed using several approaches, including an Open Approach, Percutaneous Approach, and Percutaneous Endoscopic Approach. Some codes include a Diagnostic qualifier, indicating excision performed for diagnostic purposes.

For example, the code 05B00ZZ describes excision of the Azygos Vein via an open approach, while 05B03ZX specifies a percutaneous endoscopic excision of the same vein for diagnostic reasons. Accurate selection of these excision codes is essential for documenting removal of upper veins with the appropriate approach and intent.

List of ICD-10-PCS codes used to specify 05B - Excision (cutting out or off, without replacement, a portion of a body part). There are a total of 157 procedure codes in this section.
