About 0DFQ3ZZ
0DFQ3ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a fragmentation procedure on the anus using a percutaneous approach. In ICD-10-PCS, fragmentation means breaking solid matter in a body part into pieces.
In plain terms, this corresponds to other operations on anus, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (49.99).
For a different body part, codes include 0DF53ZZ (esophagus), 0DF63ZZ (stomach), 0DF83ZZ (small intestine), 0DF93ZZ (duodenum), 0DFA3ZZ (jejunum), 0DFB3ZZ (ileum) and 10 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0DFQ0ZZ (open), 0DFQ4ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic), 0DFQ7ZZ (via natural or artificial opening), 0DFQ8ZZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic) and 0DFQXZZ (external).
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 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.
