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

The International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, Procedure Coding System (ICD-10-PCS) code group B412 includes procedures performed to visualize and image vascular structures in the hepatic artery. These ICD-10-PCS codes are used for inpatient documentation when real-time fluoroscopic imaging of the hepatic artery is performed to assess or guide treatment of hepatic arterial conditions. Accurate coding within the ICD-10-PCS B412 group is essential for proper inpatient reimbursement, as it captures the imaging procedure performed and supports clinical documentation accuracy.

Hepatic Artery Fluoroscopy Procedure Overview

This code group includes fluoroscopic imaging procedures that target the hepatic artery within the lower arteries body system and use real-time display of images developed from external ionizing radiation. These procedures involve capturing dynamic vascular images, often to guide diagnostic or therapeutic interventions in the liver arterial supply. Accurate ICD-10-PCS coding ensures inpatient records reflect the imaging performed and supports appropriate reimbursement for image-guided vascular procedures.

When to Use

Use a code from this group when real-time fluoroscopic imaging of the hepatic artery is performed during inpatient care to evaluate or guide treatment of hepatic arterial pathology. These codes apply when external ionizing radiation is used to generate and display the vascular images, regardless of whether the images are stored digitally or analogously.

Typical Clinical Scenarios

An elderly patient with a history of cirrhosis is admitted for progressive jaundice and worsening liver function tests; hepatocellular carcinoma is suspected on prior imaging and the multidisciplinary team schedules inpatient angiographic evaluation to map hepatic arterial supply before transarterial chemoembolization. Real-time fluoroscopic imaging of the hepatic artery is performed to delineate arterial anatomy and tumor feeders to plan therapy. Typical codes: B4121ZZ, B412YZZ
A middle-aged trauma patient presents to the emergency department with blunt abdominal injury and hemodynamic instability; concern for active hepatic arterial bleeding on FAST and CT prompts urgent image-guided vascular assessment in the angiography suite to locate and potentially guide embolization. Fluoroscopic imaging of the hepatic artery is used intra-procedurally to visualize contrast flow and target the site of hemorrhage. Typical codes: B4120ZZ, B412ZZZ
A patient previously treated with transarterial chemoembolization develops suspected hepatic artery stenosis and intermittent postprocedural liver ischemia signs while inpatient; diagnostic fluoroscopic visualization of the hepatic artery is performed to evaluate arterial patency and guide potential endovascular revision. Real-time fluoroscopy with contrast is used to assess lesion location and plan any further intervention. Typical codes: B412110, B412Y10
