ICD-10-PCS X2C New Technology: Cardiovascular System Extirpation

The ICD-10-PCS root operation Extirpation (code X2C) refers to the removal of unwanted matter from a body part. It is classified under the New Technology section and is specifically used for procedures targeting the Cardiovascular System.

This operation involves eliminating obstructions such as clots or emboli through innovative methods, primarily using Computer-aided Mechanical Aspiration. The included codes showcase the extirpation of matter from various vascular locations via a Percutaneous Approach, meaning minimally invasive entry through the skin. Examples include removal from the Abdominal Aorta (X2CP3T7), Right and Left Upper Extremity Veins (X2CQ3T7, X2CR3T7), and Lower Extremity Arteries and Veins (X2CS3T7 through X2CV3T7). Additionally, extirpation from major vessels like the Great Vessel is coded as X2CY3T7. These precise codes enable accurate documentation of specialized cardiac and vascular therapies using advanced mechanical aspiration technology.

List of ICD-10-PCS codes used to specify X2C - Extirpation (taking or cutting out solid matter from a body part). There are a total of 9 procedure codes in this section.
