The procedure code 02RX0KZ is in the medical and surgical section and is part of the heart and great vessels body system, classified under the replacement operation. The applicable bodypart is thoracic aorta, ascending/arch. 02RX0KZ replaces the following previously assigned ICD-10-PCS code (s):
The ICD-10-CM code I70.0 might also be used to specify conditions or terms like abdominal aortic atherosclerosis, aortic arch atherosclerosis, aortoiliac atherosclerosis, arteriosclerosis of abdominal aorta, arteriosclerosis of aorta , arteriosclerosis of thoracic aorta, etc.
Stages
Signs and symptoms generally occur when narrowing of the valve is severe. Some people with aortic valve stenosis may not have symptoms for many years. Signs and symptoms of aortic valve stenosis may include: Abnormal heart sound (heart murmur) heard through a stethoscope.
What is aortic valve stenosis? Aortic stenosis is one of the most common and serious valve disease problems. Aortic stenosis is a narrowing of the aortic valve opening. Aortic stenosis restricts the blood flow from the left ventricle to the aorta and may also affect the pressure in the left atrium.
Your aortic valve keeps blood flowing from your heart's lower left chamber (left ventricle) to the aorta (the main artery bringing blood from the heart to the body). Aortic stenosis occurs when that valve narrows and blood cannot flow normally. The condition may range from mild to severe.
Aortic valve stenosis is the most common form of valvular heart disease in the elderly population and frequently occurs in conjunction with coronary artery disease (CAD).
Aortic aneurysm is present in bicuspid aortic valve, while coronary atherosclerosis is present in aortic stenosis of both bicuspid and tricuspid aortic valves, however, more common in tricuspid aortic valve.
Severe aortic valve stenosis prevents your aortic valve leaflets from opening and closing properly (pictured below). This makes your heart work harder to pump blood to the rest of your body. A diseased valve affects your health and limits your daily activities.
The aortic valve is a valve in the heart of humans and most other animals, located between the left ventricle and the aorta. It is one of the four valves of the heart and one of the two semilunar valves, the other being the pulmonary valve....Aortic valveLatinvalva aortaeMeSHD001021TA98A12.1.04.012TA239936 more rows
The most common cause of aortic stenosis is the accumulation of calcium deposits on the aortic valve, which increases with age. This causes the aortic valve to stiffen and narrow over time.

Introduction. Coronary artery disease (CAD) and severe aortic valve stenosis frequently coexist. CAD is prevalent in >60% of patients undergoing surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR)1 and up to 65% of patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR).
Stenosis, which means narrowing, can cause pressure on your spinal cord or the nerves that go from your spinal cord to your muscles.
Coronary artery disease (CAD) and valvular heart disease (VHD) are responsible for major cardiovascular events. 1, 2, 3 VHD is less often than heart failure, ischemic heart disease, and hypertension, but it is correlated to heart function deterioration with high fatal outcomes.
