About 0BVB0ZZ

0BVB0ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a restriction procedure on the left lower lobe bronchus using an open approach. In ICD-10-PCS, restriction means partially closing an orifice or the lumen of a tubular body part.

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 0BV10ZZ (trachea), 0BV20ZZ (carina), 0BV30ZZ (right main bronchus), 0BV40ZZ (right upper lobe bronchus), 0BV50ZZ (right middle lobe bronchus), 0BV60ZZ (right lower lobe bronchus) and 3 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0BVB3ZZ (percutaneous), 0BVB4ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic), 0BVB7ZZ (via natural or artificial opening) and 0BVB8ZZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).

With a different device, use 0BVB0CZ (extraluminal device) and 0BVB0DZ (intraluminal device).

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”.

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