About 02B93ZZ

02B93ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a excision procedure on the chordae tendineae using a percutaneous approach. In ICD-10-PCS, excision means cutting out or off, without replacement, a portion of a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to excision or destruction of other lesion or tissue of heart, endovascular approach, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (37.34).

For a different body part, codes include 02B43ZZ (coronary vein), 02B53ZZ (atrial septum), 02B63ZZ (right atrium), 02B73ZZ (left atrium), 02B83ZZ (conduction mechanism), 02BD3ZZ (papillary muscle) and 16 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 02B90ZZ (open) and 02B94ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 273 (Percutaneous and Other Intracardiac Procedures with MCC) and DRG 274 (Percutaneous and Other Intracardiac Procedures without MCC), under the surgical category “Percutaneous and Other Intracardiac Procedures”.

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