ICD-10-PCS Code For Innominate Artery: Procedure Code Group Overview

The International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, Procedure Coding System (ICD-10-PCS) code group 0352 includes procedures performed to destroy all or a portion of the innominate artery. These ICD-10-PCS codes are used for inpatient documentation when a clinician applies energy, force, or a destructive agent to ablate arterial tissue of the innominate artery. Accurate coding within the ICD-10-PCS 0352 group is essential for proper inpatient reimbursement, as it captures the specific vascular procedure performed and determines appropriate case mix and payment.

Innominate Artery Destruction Procedure Overview

Procedures in this group involve the destruction of all or part of the innominate artery using energy, force, or a destructive agent and target the upper arterial system. These procedures are coded in the Medical and Surgical section of the International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, Procedure Coding System (ICD-10-PCS). Accurate coding of innominate artery destruction ensures the inpatient record reflects the specific vascular intervention performed and supports appropriate inpatient reimbursement. Precise selection of the destruction codes affects case mix assignment and payment determinations.

When to Use

Use a code from this group when the clinical intervention intentionally destroys innominate artery tissue rather than removing or repairing it. These codes apply when energy, a destructive agent, or force is directly applied to the innominate artery during an inpatient procedure.

Typical Clinical Scenarios

An elderly patient presents to the emergency department with sudden onset of massive hemoptysis and imaging demonstrates active hemorrhage from an infected pseudoaneurysm of the innominate artery with ongoing exsanguination risk. Because the goal is to stop arterial bleeding by directly destroying the diseased arterial tissue and exclude the source without vessel reconstruction in the unstable setting, an open surgical destruction of the innominate artery is performed. This controlled destructive procedure is documented as destruction of the innominate artery via an open approach. Typical codes: 03520ZZ
A middle-aged patient with a prior tracheostomy develops a recurrent, localized arterial lesion of the innominate artery causing intermittent tracheal erosion and recurrent minor bleeding identified on angiography. After multidisciplinary discussion, a targeted percutaneous catheter-based ablative technique is used to destroy the focal arterial tissue causing the erosion while avoiding open reconstruction. The procedure is performed percutaneously to ablate the abnormal arterial segment. Typical codes: 03523ZZ
A patient with prior endovascular interventions for an innominate artery lesion returns with recurrent focal neointimal hyperplasia at the treated site causing symptomatic cerebral hypoperfusion. During an inpatient admission for recurrent ischemic symptoms, a percutaneous endoscopic-assisted destructive procedure is performed to ablate the restenotic arterial tissue to restore lumen patency prior to staged revascularization decisions. The operative documentation records destruction of the innominate artery via a percutaneous endoscopic approach. Typical codes: 03524ZZ
