About 0D710ZZ

0D710ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a dilation procedure on the esophagus, upper using an open approach. In ICD-10-PCS, dilation means expanding an orifice or the lumen of a tubular body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to repair of esophageal stricture, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (42.85).

For a different body part, codes include 0D720ZZ (esophagus, middle), 0D730ZZ (esophagus, lower), 0D740ZZ (esophagogastric junction), 0D750ZZ (esophagus), 0D760ZZ (stomach), 0D770ZZ (stomach, pylorus) and 15 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0D713ZZ (percutaneous), 0D714ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic), 0D717ZZ (via natural or artificial opening) and 0D718ZZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).

With a different device, use 0D710DZ (intraluminal 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), DRG 328 (Stomach, Esophageal and Duodenal Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 820 (Lymphoma and Leukemia with Major O.R. Procedures with MCC), DRG 821 (Lymphoma and Leukemia with Major O.R. Procedures with CC) and DRG 822 (Lymphoma and Leukemia with Major O.R. Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Stomach, Esophageal and Duodenal Procedures”, “Lymphoma and Leukemia with Major O.R. Procedures”, “Myeloproliferative Disorders or Poorly Differentiated Neoplasms with Major O.R. Procedures” and 2 more.
