About 0BBP4ZZ

0BBP4ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a excision procedure on the left pleura using a percutaneous endoscopic approach. In ICD-10-PCS, excision means cutting out or off, without replacement, a portion of a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to other excision of pleura, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (34.59).

For a different body part, codes include 0BB14ZZ (trachea), 0BB24ZZ (carina), 0BB34ZZ (right main bronchus), 0BB44ZZ (right upper lobe bronchus), 0BB54ZZ (right middle lobe bronchus), 0BB64ZZ (right lower lobe bronchus) and 15 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0BBP0ZZ (open), 0BBP3ZZ (percutaneous) and 0BBP8ZZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).

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), DRG 165 (Major Chest 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 “Major Chest 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.
