About 0CBF0ZZ

0CBF0ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a excision procedure on the left sublingual gland using an open 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 salivary gland lesion and partial sialoadenectomy, the ICD-9-CM procedure titles it maps to (26.29 and 26.31).

For a different body part, codes include 0CB00ZZ (upper lip), 0CB10ZZ (lower lip), 0CB20ZZ (hard palate), 0CB30ZZ (soft palate), 0CB40ZZ (buccal mucosa), 0CB50ZZ (upper gingiva) and 18 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0CBF3ZZ (percutaneous).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 139 (Salivary Gland Procedures), under the surgical category “Salivary Gland Procedures”.

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