About 00F63ZZ

00F63ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a fragmentation procedure on the cerebral ventricle using a percutaneous approach. In ICD-10-PCS, fragmentation means breaking solid matter in a body part into pieces.

In plain terms, this corresponds to repair of brain, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (02.92).

For a different body part, codes include 00F33ZZ (epidural space, intracranial), 00F43ZZ (subdural space, intracranial), 00F53ZZ (subarachnoid space, intracranial) and 00FU3ZZ (spinal canal).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 00F60ZZ (open), 00F64ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic) and 00F6XZZ (external).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 023 (Craniotomy with Major Device Implant or Acute Complex CNS Principal Diagnosis with MCC or Antineoplastic Implant or Epilepsy with Neurostimulator), DRG 024 (Craniotomy with Major Device Implant or Acute Complex CNS Principal Diagnosis without MCC), DRG 025 (Craniotomy and Endovascular Intracranial Procedures with MCC), DRG 026 (Craniotomy and Endovascular Intracranial Procedures with CC), DRG 027 (Craniotomy and Endovascular Intracranial Procedures without CC/MCC) and DRG 907 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with MCC), under the surgical categories “Craniotomy with Major Device Implant or Acute Complex CNS Principal Diagnosis”, “Craniotomy and endovascular intracranial procedures”, “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries” and 1 more.

It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
