About 0DR57KZ

0DR57KZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a replacement procedure on the esophagus using a via natural or artificial opening approach with nonautologous tissue substitute. In ICD-10-PCS, replacement means putting in or on biological or synthetic material that physically takes the place and/or function of all or a portion of a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to other graft of esophagus, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (42.87).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0DR50KZ (open), 0DR54KZ (percutaneous endoscopic) and 0DR58KZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).

With a different device, use 0DR577Z (autologous tissue substitute) and 0DR57JZ (synthetic substitute).

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.
