ICD-10-PCS X28 New Technology: Cardiovascular System Division
The ICD-10-PCS root operation Division (code X28) in the New Technology section involves cutting into or separating a body part without removing any portion. This operation is used to disrupt or split tissue, often with innovative techniques.
Specifically, within the Cardiovascular System, the Division operation includes advanced procedures such as the Division of the Aortic Valve using Intraluminal Bioprosthetic Valve Leaflet Splitting Technology. This procedure is performed via a Percutaneous Approach on an existing valve (code X28F3VA), representing a minimally invasive technique that modifies valve leaflets without removal. These codes exemplify how the Division operation applies cutting-edge methods to treat cardiovascular conditions, reflecting the evolving landscape of medical technology in procedural coding.
