About 087X8DZ

087X8DZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a dilation procedure on the right lacrimal duct using a via natural or artificial opening endoscopic approach with intraluminal device. In ICD-10-PCS, dilation means expanding an orifice or the lumen of a tubular body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to intubation of nasolacrimal duct, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (09.44).

For a different body part, codes include 087Y8DZ (left lacrimal duct).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 087X0DZ (open), 087X3DZ (percutaneous) and 087X7DZ (via natural or artificial opening).

With a different device, use 087X8ZZ (no device).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 115 (Extraocular Procedures Except Orbit), 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 907 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with MCC) and DRG 908 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with CC), under the surgical categories “Extraocular Procedures Except Orbit”, “Other Ear, Nose, Mouth and Throat O.R. Procedures”, “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries” and 1 more.

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