About 0BF30ZZ

0BF30ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a fragmentation procedure on the right main bronchus using an open approach. In ICD-10-PCS, fragmentation means breaking solid matter in a body part into pieces.

In plain terms, this corresponds to other repair and plastic operations on bronchus, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (33.48).

For a different body part, codes include 0BF10ZZ (trachea), 0BF20ZZ (carina), 0BF40ZZ (right upper lobe bronchus), 0BF50ZZ (right middle lobe bronchus), 0BF60ZZ (right lower lobe bronchus), 0BF70ZZ (left main bronchus) and 3 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0BF33ZZ (percutaneous), 0BF34ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic), 0BF37ZZ (via natural or artificial opening), 0BF38ZZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic) and 0BF3XZZ (external).

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”.
