ICD-10-PCS Code For Aortic Valve: Procedure Code Group Overview

The International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, Procedure Coding System (ICD-10-PCS) code group 024F includes procedures performed to create or form a new valve structure in the aortic valve. These ICD-10-PCS codes are used for inpatient documentation when a new aortic valve is constructed using biological or synthetic material to replace an absent or nonfunctional valve. Accurate coding within the ICD-10-PCS 024F group is essential for proper inpatient reimbursement, as it captures the procedure performed and supports clinical documentation accuracy.

Aortic Valve Creation Procedure Overview

Procedures in this group involve creating a new aortic valve structure using biological or synthetic material and target the heart and great vessels. These operations reconstruct or form an aortic valve to replicate absent or severely damaged valve anatomy and restore function. Accurate ICD-10-PCS coding for these creation procedures is important for inpatient reimbursement because it documents the complex operative work and supports appropriate case mix classification.

When to Use

Use a code from this group when a surgeon constructs a new aortic valve to replace an absent or irreparably damaged native valve. These codes apply when biological or synthetic material is put in or on the aortic valve to recreate its anatomy and restore valve function.

Typical Clinical Scenarios

An infant with truncus arteriosus type I presenting in the neonatal period with severe truncal valve insufficiency causing heart failure and poor feeding is taken to the OR electively after stabilization to reconstruct a functional aortic valve using the patient’s own tissue because native valve anatomy is deficient. The operation is performed via an open approach to create a new valve from truncal valve tissue and restore systemic outflow. Typical codes: 024F07J
An adult with a congenitally dysplastic truncal valve who develops progressive aortic regurgitation and symptomatic left ventricular dilation is admitted for planned corrective surgery; the surgeon reconstructs an aortic valve using nonautologous biologic tissue to recreate competent valve leaflets and avoid long-term anticoagulation. The procedure is done open on the heart and great vessels to form a new valve structure from truncal valve material augmented with a nonautologous tissue substitute. Typical codes: 024F0KJ
A young child who previously underwent palliative repair for truncal anomalies returns with recurrent severe aortic valve insufficiency and failing ventricular function requiring urgent reoperation; the team performs open reconstruction creating an aortic valve using a synthetic substitute to reestablish valve competence when native tissue is inadequate. The urgent inpatient operative creation replaces the absent or nonfunctional valve anatomy to stabilize hemodynamics. Typical codes: 024F0JJ
