ICD-10-PCS X27 New Technology: Cardiovascular System Dilation
The ICD-10-PCS root operation Dilation (code X27) in the New Technology section involves expanding a narrowed or obstructed body part to improve blood flow or function. This operation is commonly applied in the Cardiovascular System to open arteries using advanced medical devices.
The provided examples demonstrate dilation performed on specific arteries of the lower leg, including the Right and Left Anterior Tibial Arteries, Posterior Tibial Arteries, and Peroneal Arteries. Each procedure uses an Intraluminal Device such as an Everolimus-eluting Resorbable Scaffold via a minimally invasive Percutaneous Approach. Codes like X27P3TA and X27U3TA denote precise artery targeting and device use, reflecting innovative techniques in vascular treatment. Accurately coding these new technology dilation procedures is essential for capturing the use of cutting-edge devices that restore arterial patency in the cardiovascular system.
List of ICD-10-PCS codes used to specify X27 - Dilation (expanding an orifice or the lumen of a tubular body part). There are a total of 7 procedure codes in this section.
