About 0BF64ZZ
0BF64ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a fragmentation procedure on the right lower lobe bronchus using a percutaneous endoscopic 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 0BF14ZZ (trachea), 0BF24ZZ (carina), 0BF34ZZ (right main bronchus), 0BF44ZZ (right upper lobe bronchus), 0BF54ZZ (right middle lobe bronchus), 0BF74ZZ (left main bronchus) and 3 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0BF60ZZ (open), 0BF63ZZ (percutaneous), 0BF67ZZ (via natural or artificial opening), 0BF68ZZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic) and 0BF6XZZ (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”.
