About 0DBLFZZ
0DBLFZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a excision procedure on the transverse colon using a via natural or artificial opening with percutaneous endoscopic assistance 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 other and unspecified partial excision of large intestine, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (45.79).
For a different body part, codes include 0DBGFZZ (left large intestine), 0DBMFZZ (descending colon) and 0DBNFZZ (sigmoid colon).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0DBL0ZZ (open), 0DBL3ZZ (percutaneous), 0DBL4ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic), 0DBL7ZZ (via natural or artificial opening) and 0DBL8ZZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 347 (Anal and Stomal Procedures with MCC), DRG 348 (Anal and Stomal Procedures with CC), DRG 349 (Anal and Stomal Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 628 (Other Endocrine, Nutritional and Metabolic O.R. Procedures with MCC or Insertion of Antibiotic-eluting Bone Void Filler), DRG 629 (Other Endocrine, Nutritional and Metabolic O.R. Procedures with CC) and DRG 630 (Other Endocrine, Nutritional and Metabolic O.R. Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Anal and Stomal Procedures” and “Other Endocrine, Nutritional and Metabolic O.R. Procedures”.
It was added in FY2018, effective October 1, 2017.
