PTCA, or percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty, is a minimally invasive procedure that opens blocked coronary arteries to improve blood flow to the heart muscle. First, a local anesthesia numbs the groin area. Then, the doctor puts a needle into the femoral artery, the artery that runs down the leg.
Postprocedural hematoma of a circulatory system organ or structure following a cardiac catheterization. I97. 630 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes.
Percutaneous transluminal angioplasty, stenting and atherectomy are minimally invasive (endovascular) procedures that restore blood flow when arteries are clogged due to peripheral artery disease. Stenting, in which a tube is placed in the artery to hold it open, is often part of the angioplasty procedure.
Percutaneous transluminal angioplasty is commonly called PTA, or just angioplasty. A catheter is inserted into an artery—usually in the groin—but sometimes in the arm or wrist. The catheter is advanced to the blocked artery, and a series of x-ray pictures are taken to clearly visualize the artery that is narrowed.
Percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) is a procedure that can open up a blocked blood vessel using a small, flexible plastic tube, or catheter, with a "balloon" at the end of it. When the tube is in place, it inflates to open the blood vessel, or artery, so that normal blood flow is restored.

Percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) is performed to open blocked coronary arteries caused by coronary artery disease (CAD) and to restore arterial blood flow to the heart tissue without open-heart surgery.
Angioplasty — A balloon is inflated to open the vessel. Angioplasty and stent placement — After the balloon is used, a mesh frame called a stent will be placed in the vessel to support the walls. Atherectomy — The plaque is removed using a rotating shaver or laser.
