About 00W033Z

00W033Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a revision procedure on the brain using a percutaneous approach with infusion device. In ICD-10-PCS, revision means correcting, to the extent possible, a portion of a malfunctioning device or the position of a displaced device.

In plain terms, this corresponds to other incision of brain, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (01.39).

For a different body part, codes include 00W633Z (cerebral ventricle), 00WE33Z (cranial nerve), 00WU33Z (spinal canal) and 00WV33Z (spinal cord).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 00W003Z (open), 00W043Z (percutaneous endoscopic) and 00W0X3Z (external).

With a different device, use 00W030Z (drainage device), 00W032Z (monitoring device), 00W037Z (autologous tissue substitute), 00W03JZ (synthetic substitute), 00W03KZ (nonautologous tissue substitute), 00W03MZ (neurostimulator lead) and 1 more.

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.
