About 0DCE3ZZ
0DCE3ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a extirpation procedure on the large intestine using a percutaneous approach. In ICD-10-PCS, extirpation means taking or cutting out solid matter from a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to incision of large intestine, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (45.03).
For a different body part, codes include 0DC13ZZ (esophagus, upper), 0DC23ZZ (esophagus, middle), 0DC33ZZ (esophagus, lower), 0DC43ZZ (esophagogastric junction), 0DC53ZZ (esophagus), 0DC63ZZ (stomach) and 20 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0DCE0ZZ (open), 0DCE4ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic), 0DCE7ZZ (via natural or artificial opening) and 0DCE8ZZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 344 (Minor Small and Large Bowel Procedures with MCC), DRG 345 (Minor Small and Large Bowel Procedures with CC), DRG 346 (Minor Small and Large Bowel Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 907 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with MCC), DRG 908 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with CC) and DRG 909 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Minor Small and Large Bowel Procedures” and “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries”.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
