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 0CDT3ZZ

UNSPSC 85583421 Extraction of right vocal cord, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with actual state and local government procurement activity. The code's nominal scope—a specific surgical procedure—does not match the medical services state and local bodies are actually soliciting. Recent opportunities under this code include independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations, occupational health surveillance, surgical benefit carve-out programs, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for youth in custody. These solicitations span administrative health services, occupational medicine, specialty care coordination, and clinical staffing—none of which involves extraction of vocal cords or the specific otolaryngologic procedure the code names.

The issuing bodies are geographically and functionally diverse: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (Arizona), City of Long Beach (California), Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas), Collier County (Florida), and Santa Clara County Health System (California). The code shows little coherent procurement pattern and does not reflect a meaningful commodity or service family under which state and local governments regularly compete. Analysts evaluating this code should treat it as inactive or mislabeled in recent databases; the opportunities tagged to it do not constitute a valid market signal for the surgical procedure the UNSPSC name describes.
