About 09DL7ZZ

09DL7ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a extraction procedure on the nasal turbinate using a via natural or artificial opening approach. In ICD-10-PCS, extraction means pulling or stripping out or off all or a portion of a body part by the use of force.

In plain terms, this corresponds to other turbinectomy, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (21.69).

For a different body part, codes include 09D77ZZ (right tympanic membrane) and 09D87ZZ (left tympanic membrane).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 09DL0ZZ (open), 09DL3ZZ (percutaneous), 09DL4ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic) and 09DL8ZZ (via natural or artificial opening 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 907 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with MCC), DRG 908 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with CC) and DRG 909 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Other Ear, Nose, Mouth and Throat O.R. Procedures”, “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.
