About 0DTH0ZZ

0DTH0ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a resection procedure on the cecum using an open approach. In ICD-10-PCS, resection means cutting out or off, without replacement, all of a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to open and other cecectomy, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (45.72).

For a different body part, codes include 0DT10ZZ (esophagus, upper), 0DT20ZZ (esophagus, middle), 0DT30ZZ (esophagus, lower), 0DT40ZZ (esophagogastric junction), 0DT50ZZ (esophagus), 0DT60ZZ (stomach) and 18 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0DTH4ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic), 0DTH7ZZ (via natural or artificial opening) and 0DTH8ZZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 361 (Other Circulatory System O.R. Procedures with MCC), DRG 362 (Other Circulatory System O.R. Procedures without MCC), DRG 329 (Major Small and Large Bowel Procedures with MCC), DRG 330 (Major Small and Large Bowel Procedures with CC), DRG 331 (Major Small and Large Bowel Procedures without CC/MCC) and DRG 907 (Other O.R.
