This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of synthetic substitute from cisterna chyli, open 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 07PL0JZ

UNSPSC 85541732 Removal of synthetic substitute from cisterna chyli, open approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code nominally describes a surgical procedure — specifically the removal of an implanted synthetic graft or prosthetic material from the cisterna chyli (the origin of the thoracic duct) via open surgical technique. However, the recent opportunities tagged under this code are not procurement of that surgical procedure; instead, they span independent medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, occupational medical surveillance, surgical benefit administration for health plans, temporary healthcare staffing pools, and specialty medical services for detained youth — none of which align with the code's stated scope.

The mismatch between code and actual work reflects how state and local procurement systems sometimes tag opportunities with codes that do not match the goods or services being bought. Bidders reviewing activity under this code should treat it as a low-priority signal and rely on direct RFP and RFQ feeds from relevant jurisdictions — the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, the City of Long Beach, the Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County, and the County of Santa Clara — rather than assuming future opportunities posted here will be relevant to surgical implant removal or related orthopedic procedures.
