This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to dilation of left internal carotid artery, open approach.

UNSPSC 85501139, Dilation of left internal carotid artery, open approach, is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity under state and local procurement. The code's nominal scope — a specific surgical procedure — does not align with the work actually being solicited by state and local bodies in the recent-opportunities record. The six opportunities posted between July and September 2026 span independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical care center-of-excellence networks, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing. None of these solicitations concern vascular or interventional cardiology procedures, and none reference the specific carotid dilation procedure the code nominally describes. State and local procurement offices appear to use this code infrequently or inconsistently when tagging medical services opportunities, or the opportunities in the recent block may have been misfiled against the code.

If pursuit under this code is being considered, verify the actual scope of work with the issuing body before investing in a proposal response, as the disconnect between the code's clinical scope and the solicitations tagged to it suggests either a cataloging error or a pattern of state and local use that diverges substantially from the code's definition.
