ICD-10-PCSDilation of Inferior Vena Cava and Iliocaval Confluence with Open-structure Polymer Lattice Intraluminal Device, Percutaneous Approach, New Technology Group 11
This code describes a procedure to widen a narrowed inferior vena cava (IVC) and the area where it meets the iliac veins. This is achieved by inserting a specialized, open-structure polymer lattice device through the skin, without open surgery, to maintain the vessel's patency. This particular device belongs to a new technology group, indicating its recent introduction and unique characteristics.
This code is used when a patient presents with symptomatic IVC and/or iliac vein obstruction, often due to chronic deep vein thrombosis (DVT) or May-Thurner syndrome, and requires percutaneous intervention. It is specifically applicable when the chosen intraluminal device is an open-structure polymer lattice stent from New Technology Group 11.
