UNSPSC 85505126 Extirpation of matter from right ulnar artery, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code for which state and local procurement activity shows no relevant recent opportunities. The code's nominal taxonomy references a specific surgical procedure, yet the recent state and local solicitations posted under this code instead seek medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, occupational medical surveillance, emergency healthcare for detained youth, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which align with vascular interventional procedures or arterial matter removal. The mismatch indicates either a data classification error or that the code has been repurposed in state and local procurement systems for uses distant from its clinical definition. No concrete examples of procurement for the code's stated scope appear in recent records.

Because the recent opportunities do not support the nominal code definition, no characterization of issuing-body mix, geographic spread, or representative solicitations specific to arterial vascular procedures can be drawn. Firms evaluating this code should verify the actual scope of work being bought under 85505126 within the specific jurisdictions or cooperative purchasing vehicles they target, as the taxonomy assignment in state and local systems may not align with the code's clinical specification.
