About 07QL0ZZ

07QL0ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a repair procedure on the cisterna chyli using an open approach. In ICD-10-PCS, repair means restoring, to the extent possible, a body part to its normal anatomic structure and function.

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 07Q00ZZ (lymphatic, head), 07Q10ZZ (lymphatic, right neck), 07Q20ZZ (lymphatic, left neck), 07Q30ZZ (lymphatic, right upper extremity), 07Q40ZZ (lymphatic, left upper extremity), 07Q50ZZ (lymphatic, right axillary) and 14 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 07QL3ZZ (percutaneous), 07QL4ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic) and 07QL8ZZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).

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”.

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