About 07PL43Z

07PL43Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a removal procedure on the cisterna chyli using a percutaneous endoscopic approach with infusion device. In ICD-10-PCS, removal means taking out or off a device from a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to other operations on thoracic duct, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (40.69).

For a different body part, codes include 07PK43Z (thoracic duct), 07PM43Z (thymus), 07PN43Z (lymphatic) and 07PP43Z (spleen).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 07PL03Z (open), 07PL33Z (percutaneous) and 07PLX3Z (external).

With a different device, use 07PL40Z (drainage device), 07PL47Z (autologous tissue substitute), 07PL4CZ (extraluminal device), 07PL4DZ (intraluminal device), 07PL4JZ (synthetic substitute), 07PL4KZ (nonautologous tissue substitute) and 1 more.

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 163 (Major Chest Procedures with MCC), DRG 164 (Major Chest Procedures with CC) and DRG 165 (Major Chest Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical category “Major Chest Procedures”.
