About 07T40ZZ

07T40ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a resection procedure on the lymphatic, left upper extremity using an open approach. In ICD-10-PCS, resection means cutting out or off, without replacement, all of a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to radical excision of lymph nodes, not otherwise specified, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (40.50).

For a different body part, codes include 07T00ZZ (lymphatic, head), 07T10ZZ (lymphatic, right neck), 07T20ZZ (lymphatic, left neck), 07T30ZZ (lymphatic, right upper extremity), 07T50ZZ (lymphatic, right axillary), 07T60ZZ (lymphatic, left axillary) and 14 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 07T44ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 143 (Other Ear, Nose, Mouth and Throat O.R. Procedures with MCC), DRG 144 (Other Ear, Nose, Mouth and Throat O.R. Procedures with CC), DRG 145 (Other Ear, Nose, Mouth and Throat O.R. Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 166 (Other Respiratory System O.R. Procedures with MCC), DRG 167 (Other Respiratory System O.R. Procedures with CC) and DRG 168 (Other Respiratory System O.R. Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Other Ear, Nose, Mouth and Throat O.R. Procedures”, “Other Respiratory System O.R. Procedures”, “Other Digestive System O.R. Procedures” and 8 more.

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