About 0BVB3ZZ

0BVB3ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a restriction procedure on the left lower lobe bronchus using a percutaneous 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 0BV13ZZ (trachea), 0BV23ZZ (carina), 0BV33ZZ (right main bronchus), 0BV43ZZ (right upper lobe bronchus), 0BV53ZZ (right middle lobe bronchus), 0BV63ZZ (right lower lobe bronchus) and 3 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0BVB0ZZ (open), 0BVB4ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic), 0BVB7ZZ (via natural or artificial opening) and 0BVB8ZZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).

With a different device, use 0BVB3CZ (extraluminal device) and 0BVB3DZ (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.
