ICD-10-PCS Code for Subclavian Artery Right: Procedure Code Group Overview

The International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, Procedure Coding System (ICD-10-PCS) code group 03R3 includes procedures performed to replace arterial structures in the right subclavian artery. These ICD-10-PCS codes are used for inpatient documentation when a segment or the entire right subclavian artery is removed and substituted with biological or synthetic material to restore blood flow. Accurate coding within the ICD-10-PCS 03R3 group is essential for proper inpatient reimbursement, as it captures the replacement procedure performed and supports clinical documentation accuracy.

Subclavian Artery, Right Replacement Procedure Overview

This procedure group includes inpatient surgical replacement of the right subclavian artery, part of the upper arterial system supplying the right upper extremity and thoracic structures. Procedures involve removal of all or part of the native artery and insertion of a biological or synthetic conduit to restore arterial continuity and function. Accurate ICD-10-PCS coding of these replacements is important for clinical documentation and correct inpatient reimbursement because it reflects the operative complexity and resources used.

When to Use

Use a code from this group when the clinical procedure involves removal of all or part of the right subclavian artery and insertion of a graft or conduit. These codes apply when the primary operation performed is replacement rather than repair, bypass, or other arterial interventions.

Typical Clinical Scenarios

An elderly patient presents to the emergency department with acute right upper extremity ischemia and imaging demonstrates a ruptured right subclavian artery aneurysm with loss of arterial continuity. Because the native artery segment is nonviable and hemorrhage control with restoration of flow is required emergently, the surgeon removes the damaged arterial segment and replaces it with an autologous vein graft through an open cervical-thoracic exposure. The procedure restores arterial continuity and limb perfusion in the acute setting. Typical codes: 03R307Z
A middle-aged patient with progressive symptomatic subclavian artery occlusive disease and claudication of the right arm is scheduled electively after failed endovascular attempts. The planned operation is removal of the diseased arterial segment and replacement with a synthetic prosthetic graft via an open supraclavicular approach to reestablish durable arterial inflow. This elective inpatient replacement addresses chronic ischemic symptoms and aims to provide long-term patency. Typical codes: 03R30JZ
A patient who previously underwent right subclavian artery repair with a prosthetic graft returns with graft infection and pseudoaneurysm formation identified on imaging. The operative management requires excision of the infected prosthetic segment and replacement with a nonautologous biologic tissue conduit using an open approach to eliminate infection and restore arterial continuity. The inpatient procedure is performed to treat the complication and prevent recurrent sepsis or hemorrhage. Typical codes: 03R30KZ
