Thoracic endovascular aneurysm repair (TEVAR) is a minimally invasive alternative to major open surgery for the repair of thoracic aortic aneurysms (TAAs) that results in reduced recovery times and potentially improved survival rates.
ICD10 / CCI Coding
CCI:
![]() |
How do we code this in CCI ? Currently we use the component section: Thoracic Aorta (T); excision with reconstruction, replacement. There is no way to indicate that it is an endovascular repair. |
ICD10:
![]() |
How do we code this in ICD10? In ICD 10 we would code the aortic aneurysm and pick the correct one from that list. |
