ICD-10-PCS 05C Medical and Surgical: Upper Veins Extirpation

The ICD-10-PCS root operation Extirpation (Code 05C) refers to the removal of foreign matter or pathological material from a body part without taking out the body part itself. This operation is classified under the Medical and Surgical section and specifically involves the Upper Veins.

Extirpation in the upper veins involves clearing obstructions, such as clots or other matter, from veins like the Azygos, Hemiazygos, Innominate, Subclavian, Axillary, Brachial, and various jugular and facial veins. These procedures can be performed via different approaches, including an Open Approach (e.g., code 05C00ZZ for extirpation from the Azygos Vein), Percutaneous Approach (e.g., 05C03ZZ), and Percutaneous Endoscopic Approach (e.g., 05C04ZZ).

The extensive code set allows precise documentation of the specific vein targeted and the method used, which is critical for accurate procedural coding and clinical communication. This makes the ICD-10-PCS Extirpation operation essential for describing removal of obstructive matter in the vascular system without vein excision.
