About 0CSV8ZZ

0CSV8ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a reposition procedure on the left vocal cord using a via natural or artificial opening endoscopic approach. In ICD-10-PCS, reposition means moving to its normal location, or other suitable location, all or a portion of a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to other repair of larynx, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (31.69).

For a different body part, codes include 0CSR8ZZ (epiglottis), 0CSS8ZZ (larynx) and 0CST8ZZ (right vocal cord).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0CSV0ZZ (open) and 0CSV7ZZ (via natural or artificial opening).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 143 (Other Ear, Nose, Mouth and Throat O.R. Procedures with MCC), DRG 144 (Other Ear, Nose, Mouth and Throat O.R. Procedures with CC), DRG 145 (Other Ear, Nose, Mouth and Throat O.R. Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 166 (Other Respiratory System O.R. Procedures with MCC), DRG 167 (Other Respiratory System O.R. Procedures with CC) and DRG 168 (Other Respiratory System O.R. Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Other Ear, Nose, Mouth and Throat O.R. Procedures”, “Other Respiratory System O.R. Procedures” and “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries”.

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