About 0DB47ZZ

0DB47ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a excision procedure on the esophagogastric junction using a via natural or artificial opening 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 local excision of other lesion or tissue of esophagus, other destruction of lesion or tissue of esophagus and partial gastrectomy with anastomosis to esophagus, the ICD-9-CM procedure titles it maps to (42.32, 42.39 and 43.5).

For a different body part, codes include 0DB17ZZ (esophagus, upper), 0DB27ZZ (esophagus, middle), 0DB37ZZ (esophagus, lower), 0DB57ZZ (esophagus), 0DB67ZZ (stomach), 0DB77ZZ (stomach, pylorus) and 16 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0DB40ZZ (open), 0DB43ZZ (percutaneous), 0DB44ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic) and 0DB48ZZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).

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.

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