About 07UK0JZ

07UK0JZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a supplement procedure on the thoracic duct using an open approach with synthetic substitute. In ICD-10-PCS, supplement means putting in or on biological or synthetic material that physically reinforces and/or augments the function of a portion of 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 07U00JZ (lymphatic, head), 07U10JZ (lymphatic, right neck), 07U20JZ (lymphatic, left neck), 07U30JZ (lymphatic, right upper extremity), 07U40JZ (lymphatic, left upper extremity), 07U50JZ (lymphatic, right axillary) and 12 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 07UK4JZ (percutaneous endoscopic).

With a different device, use 07UK07Z (autologous tissue substitute) and 07UK0KZ (nonautologous tissue substitute).

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.
