About 08SW0ZZ

08SW0ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a reposition procedure on the left lacrimal gland using an open approach. In ICD-10-PCS, reposition means moving to its normal location, or other suitable location, all or a portion of a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to other operations on lacrimal gland, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (09.3).

For a different body part, codes include 08SL0ZZ (right extraocular muscle), 08SM0ZZ (left extraocular muscle), 08SN0ZZ (right upper eyelid), 08SP0ZZ (left upper eyelid), 08SQ0ZZ (right lower eyelid), 08SR0ZZ (left lower eyelid) and 3 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 08SW3ZZ (percutaneous).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 115 (Extraocular Procedures Except Orbit), DRG 907 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with MCC), DRG 908 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with CC), DRG 909 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries without CC/MCC), DRG 957 (Other O.R. Procedures for Multiple Significant Trauma with MCC) and DRG 958 (Other O.R. Procedures for Multiple Significant Trauma with CC), under the surgical categories “Extraocular Procedures Except Orbit”, “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries” and “Other O.R. Procedures for Multiple Significant Trauma”.

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