ICD-10-PCS Code For Hepatic Vein: Procedure Code Group Overview

The International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, Procedure Coding System (ICD-10-PCS) code group 0674 includes procedures performed to dilate vessels or lumens in the hepatic vein. These ICD-10-PCS codes are used for inpatient documentation when a clinician performs a dilation procedure to relieve stenosis or obstruction of the hepatic vein. Accurate coding within the ICD-10-PCS 0674 group is essential for proper inpatient reimbursement, as it captures the specific dilation procedure performed and supports clinical documentation accuracy.

Hepatic Vein Dilation Procedure Overview

Procedures in this group involve expanding the lumen of the hepatic vein to improve blood flow through the lower venous system of the liver. These interventions target the hepatic vein within the lower veins body system and use dilation techniques such as balloon angioplasty to widen a narrowed vein. Accurate ICD-10-PCS coding matters for inpatient reimbursement because it documents the specific root operation and anatomical focus, supporting appropriate case mix assignment and payment.

Typical Clinical Scenarios

A middle-aged patient with cirrhosis presents to the hospital with progressive abdominal pain, ascites refractory to medical therapy, and imaging showing hepatic venous outflow obstruction (suspected Budd-Chiari syndrome) causing elevated hepatic venous pressures; an inpatient dilation of the hepatic vein is performed to restore venous drainage and reduce portal hypertension. Typical codes: 06743DZ, 06743ZZ
An elective-admission patient with a known hepatic vein anastomotic stenosis after prior liver transplant undergoes planned endovascular balloon dilation via a percutaneous endoscopic approach to relieve the anastomotic narrowing and preserve graft function. Typical codes: 06744DZ, 06744ZZ
A patient develops acute worsening jaundice and liver enzyme elevation after blunt abdominal trauma causing isolated hepatic vein narrowing; an open surgical dilation of the injured hepatic vein is performed during the same admission to re-establish venous flow and control hepatic congestion. Typical codes: 06740DZ, 06740ZZ
