ICD-10-PCS 06N Medical and Surgical: Lower Veins Release
The ICD-10-PCS root operation Release (code 06N) involves freeing a vein from abnormal constriction and restoring its normal function, without cutting out any tissue. This procedure is part of the Medical and Surgical section and primarily targets veins in the lower body.
Specifically, the Release operation applies to various lower veins such as the Inferior Vena Cava, Splenic Vein, Portal Vein, and several iliac and femoral veins. The ICD-10-PCS codes reflect different methods to approach these veins, including Open, Percutaneous, and Percutaneous Endoscopic Approaches. For example, code 06N00ZZ indicates an open release of the Inferior Vena Cava, while 06N24ZZ refers to releasing the Gastric Vein using a percutaneous endoscopic technique. These codes enable precise documentation of how the vein was released, ensuring accurate coding for treatments aimed at resolving vein constrictions in various anatomical locations.
List of ICD-10-PCS codes used to specify 06N - Release (freeing a body part from an abnormal physical constraint by cutting or by use of force). There are a total of 73 procedure codes in this section.
