This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to dilation of azygos vein, percutaneous 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 05703ZZ

UNSPSC 85521935 Dilation of azygos vein, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific medical procedure — percutaneous dilation of the azygos vein — yet the recent opportunities posted under this code do not involve that clinical service or any closely related interventional vascular work.

The recent opportunities tagged to this code instead span independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefit programs, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty healthcare for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories including radiology, respiratory care, audiology, and surgical support. None of these solicitations involves azygos vein procedures or related interventional vascular services. The mismatch between the code's procedure-specific name and the diverse administrative and staffing services appearing in the recent opportunities suggests either systemic miscoding by the issuing jurisdictions or a data artifact. Buyers include Phoenix's retirement office (on behalf of fire and police pension boards), the City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation's ferry system, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County, and Santa Clara County Health System — spanning state departments, city procurement offices, county boards, and specialized health authorities across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. If this code is genuinely intended for percutaneous azygos vein dilation as a state or local procurement line item, current market activity under the code is not evident in recent solicitations.
