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

The International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, Procedure Coding System (ICD-10-PCS) code group 06V7 includes procedures performed to restrict venous flow in the colic vein within the lower veins. These ICD-10-PCS codes are used for inpatient documentation when a clinician partially closes or narrows the lumen of the colic vein to control blood flow. Accurate coding within the ICD-10-PCS 06V7 group is essential for proper inpatient reimbursement, as it captures the procedure performed and supports clinical documentation accuracy.

Colic Vein Restriction Procedure Overview

Procedures in this group involve partially closing the lumen of the colic vein to restrict venous flow within the lower veins. These interventions target the lower venous system and are performed to reduce or control blood flow through the colic vein for therapeutic reasons. Accurate ICD-10-PCS coding of these procedures is important for inpatient reimbursement because it documents the specific operation and anatomic target, supporting appropriate case mix assignment and payment.

When to Use

Use a code from this group when the clinical procedure intentionally narrows or partially closes the colic vein to control or reduce venous flow. These codes apply when the intervention is performed in an inpatient setting and the documentation specifies restriction of the colic vein lumen.

Typical Clinical Scenarios

An elderly patient with chronic mesenteric venous hypertension presents with recurrent lower abdominal venous bleeding and progressive edema of the colon due to a dilated colic vein causing symptomatic venous congestion. The patient is admitted for a planned operative procedure to reduce venous flow through the colic vein to relieve congestion and decrease bleeding risk; the surgeon places an external constricting band on the vein via an open abdominal approach. Typical codes: 06V70CZ, 06V70ZZ
A middle-aged patient with cirrhosis and portal hypertension undergoes percutaneous imaging-guided intervention because of recurrent colonic variceal oozing that failed endoscopic control; the interventional team narrows the colic vein lumen using an intraluminal occlusive device delivered through a catheter to reduce flow. This inpatient percutaneous procedure is performed to restrict venous inflow to the affected segment and control ongoing bleeding. Typical codes: 06V73DZ, 06V73ZZ
A patient previously treated weeks ago for colic vein narrowing via a percutaneous endoscopic extraluminal clip returns with device migration and persistent venous bleeding; the surgical team performs a revision procedure through a percutaneous endoscopic approach to re-restrict the colic vein, this time placing an intraluminal device to achieve more durable lumen narrowing. Typical codes: 06V74DZ, 06V74CZ
