About 0DBW0ZX
0DBW0ZX is the ICD-10-PCS code for a excision procedure on the peritoneum using an open approach (qualifier: diagnostic). In ICD-10-PCS, excision means cutting out or off, without replacement, a portion of a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to biopsy of peritoneum, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (54.23).
For a different body part, codes include 0DB10ZX (esophagus, upper), 0DB20ZX (esophagus, middle), 0DB30ZX (esophagus, lower), 0DB40ZX (esophagogastric junction), 0DB50ZX (esophagus), 0DB60ZX (stomach) and 20 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0DBW3ZX (percutaneous) and 0DBW4ZX (percutaneous endoscopic).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 356 (Other Digestive System O.R. Procedures with MCC), DRG 357 (Other Digestive System O.R. Procedures with CC), DRG 358 (Other Digestive System O.R. Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 420 (Hepatobiliary Diagnostic Procedures with MCC), DRG 421 (Hepatobiliary Diagnostic Procedures with CC) and DRG 422 (Hepatobiliary Diagnostic Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Other Digestive System O.R. Procedures”, “Hepatobiliary Diagnostic Procedures”, “Other Female Reproductive System O.R. Procedures” and 1 more.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
