Dilation of Intracranial Artery with Three Drug-eluting Intraluminal Devices, Percutaneous Endoscopic Approach
“Dilate of Intracran Art with 3 Drug-elut, Perc Endo Approach” for short

037G46Z is a valid billable ICD-10 procedure code for Dilation of Intracranial Artery with Three Drug-eluting Intraluminal Devices, Percutaneous Endoscopic Approach. It is found in the 2025 version of the ICD-10 Procedure Coding System (PCS) and can be used in all HIPAA-covered transactions from Oct 01, 2024 - Sep 30, 2025.

Expanding an orifice or the lumen of a tubular body part. The orifice can be a natural orifice or an artificially created orifice. Accomplished by stretching a tubular body part using intraluminal pressure or by cutting part of the orifice or wall of the tubular body part

Percutaneous Endoscopic approach involves:
Entry, by puncture or minor incision, of instrumentation through the skin or mucous membrane and any other body layers necessary to reach and visualize the site of the procedure

Dilation includes:

  • Percutaneous transluminal angioplasty, internal urethrotomy

Intracranial Artery body part includes:

  • Anterior cerebral artery
  • Anterior choroidal artery
  • Anterior communicating artery
  • Basilar artery
  • Circle of Willis
  • Internal carotid artery, intracranial portion
  • Middle cerebral artery
  • Middle meningeal artery, intracranial portion
  • Ophthalmic artery
  • Posterior cerebral artery
  • Posterior communicating artery
  • Posterior inferior cerebellar artery (PICA)
