ICD-10-PCS Code For Common Iliac Vein, Left: Procedure Code Group Overview

The International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, Procedure Coding System (ICD-10-PCS) code group 06FD includes procedures performed to fragment solid matter in the common iliac vein, left in the lower veins. These ICD-10-PCS codes are used for inpatient documentation when a clinician performs intravascular fragmentation to break thrombus or other obstructive material in the left common iliac vein. Accurate coding within the ICD-10-PCS 06FD group is essential for proper inpatient reimbursement, as it captures the procedure performed and supports clinical documentation accuracy.

Typical Clinical Scenarios

A hospitalized patient with acute left lower extremity swelling, pain, and hypoxia is diagnosed with extensive acute iliofemoral deep vein thrombosis involving the left common iliac vein on duplex ultrasound and CT venography; systemic anticoagulation alone is insufficient due to limb-threatening venous obstruction, so inpatient endovascular intravascular fragmentation is performed to break the thrombus and restore flow as part of urgent limb salvage. Typical codes: 06FD3Z0, 06FD3ZZ
An older patient with chronic post-thrombotic syndrome and recurrent venous claudication refractory to conservative measures is admitted for a planned endovascular procedure to mechanically fragment organized chronic thrombus in the left common iliac vein to facilitate subsequent balloon angioplasty or stent placement and improve venous outflow. Typical codes: 06FD3Z0, 06FD3ZZ
A patient with prior left iliac vein stenting presents with acute in-stent thrombosis causing progressive edema and pain despite therapeutic anticoagulation; during the inpatient intervention, catheter-directed fragmentation is used to break the obstructing material within the left common iliac vein stent before adjunctive therapies are applied. Typical codes: 06FD3Z0, 06FD3ZZ
