This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement sigmoid colon with nonautologous tissue substitute, 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 0DUN4KZ

UNSPSC 85602313 Supplement sigmoid colon with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific surgical procedure performed on human tissue, but the six recent opportunities tagged to this code address occupational medical surveillance, disability benefit evaluations, health plan administration, pharmacy benefit management, temporary clinical staffing, and surgical center-of-excellence networks—none of which involve the procedure named in the code. The mismatch between code definition and actual solicitation scope suggests that either the code has been misapplied by issuing bodies or the taxonomy does not meaningfully describe actual state and local purchasing under this UNSPSC designation.

The recent opportunities do reflect active state and local spending on occupational health services, medical evaluation administration, and benefits management across Arizona, California, Washington, and Florida, but none represent procurement of the sigmoid colon surgical procedure itself. Business development professionals evaluating this code should treat it as dormant for state and local procurement purposes and investigate whether alternative codes better capture the actual market opportunity in occupational medicine, benefits administration, or clinical staffing if those segments align with their service lines.
