ICD-10-PCS 06D Medical and Surgical: Lower Veins Extraction
The ICD-10-PCS root operation Extraction (code 06D) refers to the removal of solid matter, such as a foreign body or thrombus, from a body part. Within the Medical and Surgical section, these codes specifically cover the extraction of veins in the lower extremities.
This procedure involves removing veins like the right and left femoral veins, saphenous veins, and foot veins by various approaches. For example, the extraction of the right femoral vein can be coded as 06DM0ZZ for an open approach, 06DM3ZZ for a percutaneous approach, or 06DM4ZZ when performed via percutaneous endoscopic approach. Similar coding applies to the left femoral vein and other lower veins like the saphenous and foot veins. The root operation captures the effort to physically remove vein components, an essential detail in both surgical documentation and coding for vascular procedures involving the lower veins. Accurate coding ensures clear communication of the extraction method and targeted vein.
