About 07PNX3Z
07PNX3Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a removal procedure on the lymphatic using an external 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 removal of other therapeutic device, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (97.89).
For a different body part, codes include 07PKX3Z (thoracic duct), 07PLX3Z (cisterna chyli), 07PMX3Z (thymus) and 07PPX3Z (spleen).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 07PN03Z (open), 07PN33Z (percutaneous) and 07PN43Z (percutaneous endoscopic).
With a different device, use 07PNX0Z (drainage device) and 07PNXDZ (intraluminal device).
It doesn't appear in the MS-DRG procedure index, so on its own it doesn't change the DRG assignment.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
