About 0CBF3ZZ
0CBF3ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a excision procedure on the left sublingual gland using a percutaneous 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 0CB03ZZ (upper lip), 0CB13ZZ (lower lip), 0CB23ZZ (hard palate), 0CB33ZZ (soft palate), 0CB43ZZ (buccal mucosa), 0CB53ZZ (upper gingiva) and 18 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0CBF0ZZ (open).
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.
