About 0D120KB
0D120KB is the ICD-10-PCS code for a bypass procedure on the esophagus, middle using an open approach with nonautologous tissue substitute (qualifier: ileum). In ICD-10-PCS, bypass means altering the route of passage of the contents of a tubular body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to other intrathoracic esophagoenterostomy, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (42.54).
For a different body part, codes include 0D110KB (esophagus, upper), 0D130KB (esophagus, lower), 0D150KB (esophagus), 0D160KB (stomach), 0D190KB (duodenum), 0D1A0KB (jejunum) and 1 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0D124KB (percutaneous endoscopic) and 0D128KB (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).
With a different device, use 0D1207B (autologous tissue substitute), 0D120JB (synthetic substitute) and 0D120ZB (no device).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 326 (Stomach, Esophageal and Duodenal Procedures with MCC), DRG 327 (Stomach, Esophageal and Duodenal Procedures with CC) and DRG 328 (Stomach, Esophageal and Duodenal Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical category “Stomach, Esophageal and Duodenal Procedures”.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
