This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to destruction of left external carotid artery, percutaneous endoscopic approach. This surgical intervention or procedure is listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 as code 035N4ZZ

UNSPSC 85503451 Destruction of left external carotid artery, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The six opportunities posted between July and September 2026 — solicited by the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and County of Santa Clara Health System — are tagged with this code but uniformly describe medical administration, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefits management, and temporary clinical staffing services, none of which relate to surgical intervention on the external carotid artery. The mismatch between code classification and actual scope suggests either systematic miscoding or that the code is not a meaningful vehicle for state and local procurement activity.

The represented opportunities span independent medical evaluations for disability pension determinations, surgical carve-out benefit programs for city employees, occupational medical examinations for ferry workers across fourteen Washington locations, emergency and specialty hospital care for detained youth, pharmacy benefit administration covering 2,400 to 4,800 beneficiaries, and temporary ancillary clinical staffing placement through a qualified-vendor pool. Geography includes Arizona, California, Florida, Washington, and Texas, with issuing bodies drawn from city retirement offices, city HR functions, state departments of transportation, county probation systems, county HR and benefits divisions, and county health systems. No state or local procurement activity under this Commodity code merits pursuit.
