Replacement of Esophageal Vein with Synthetic Substitute, Open Approach
Replacement of Esophageal Vein with Synth Sub, Open Approach
Axis Breakdown
Every ICD-10-PCS code is exactly seven characters, one per axis. Each character's meaning is defined by its position in the code.
| Position | Value | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Section0 | Medical and Surgical |
| 2 | Body System6 | Lower Veins |
| 3 | Root OperationR | Replacement Putting in or on biological or synthetic material that physically takes the place and/or function of all or a portion of a body part |
| 4 | Body Part3 | Esophageal Vein |
| 5 | Approach0 | Open |
| 6 | DeviceJ | Synthetic Substitute |
| 7 | QualifierZ | No Qualifier |
Potential MS-DRG Relationships (FY2026)
The MS-DRG grouper treats this as an operating room procedure. It appears in the surgical logic of 6 MS-DRGs:
- MDC 01 — Peripheral, Cranial Nerve and Other Nervous System Procedures: DRG 040, DRG 041, DRG 042
- MDC 05 — Other Vascular Procedures: DRG 252, DRG 253, DRG 254
From the CMS MS-DRG Definitions Manual, Appendix E. Actual DRG assignment depends on the complete claim.
