About 0CVC0CZ

0CVC0CZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a restriction procedure on the left parotid duct using an open approach with extraluminal device. 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 operations on salivary gland or duct, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (26.99).

For a different body part, codes include 0CVB0CZ (right parotid duct).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0CVC3CZ (percutaneous).

With a different device, use 0CVC0DZ (intraluminal device) and 0CVC0ZZ (no device).

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.
