ICD-10-PCS Code for Lymphatic: Procedure Code Group Overview

The International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, Procedure Coding System (ICD-10-PCS) code group 07HN includes procedures performed to insert nonbiological appliances that monitor, assist, perform, or prevent physiological functions in lymphatic structures. These ICD-10-PCS codes are used for inpatient documentation when a device is placed into the lymphatic or hemic system to provide monitoring or functional support. Accurate coding within the ICD-10-PCS 07HN group is essential for proper inpatient reimbursement, as it captures the specific insertion procedure performed and determines appropriate case mix and payment.

Typical Clinical Scenarios

An adult oncology patient with metastatic melanoma develops symptomatic lymphatic obstruction in an axillary lymphatic vessel causing recurrent chylous drainage and localized lymphedema despite conservative therapy; the patient is admitted for operative management to place a monitoring or infusion appliance into the affected lymphatic channel to deliver targeted therapy or facilitate drainage. Typical codes: 07HN03Z, 07HN0YZ
A pediatric patient with congenital lymphatic malformation presenting acutely with enlarging cervical lymphatic cysts and respiratory compromise undergoes an urgent percutaneous insertion of a device to drain and monitor lymphatic flow and prevent further airway obstruction during inpatient stabilization. Typical codes: 07HN33Z, 07HN3YZ
An adult post-surgical patient with persistent postoperative lymphatic leak after pelvic lymph node dissection is taken for percutaneous endoscopic placement of a radioactive element or other device into the pelvic lymphatic channels to sclerose or control the leak after conservative measures failed. Typical codes: 07HN41Z, 07HN4YZ
