About 07PL00Z

07PL00Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a removal procedure on the cisterna chyli using an open approach with drainage device. In ICD-10-PCS, removal means taking out or off a device from a body part.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 07PL30Z (percutaneous), 07PL40Z (percutaneous endoscopic) and 07PLX0Z (external).

With a different device, use 07PL03Z (infusion device), 07PL07Z (autologous tissue substitute), 07PL0CZ (extraluminal device), 07PL0DZ (intraluminal device), 07PL0JZ (synthetic substitute), 07PL0KZ (nonautologous tissue substitute) and 1 more.
