About 0DV44ZZ

0DV44ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a restriction procedure on the esophagogastric junction using a percutaneous endoscopic approach. In ICD-10-PCS, restriction means partially closing an orifice or the lumen of a tubular body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to laparoscopic procedures for creation of esophagogastric sphincteric competence, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (44.67).

For a different body part, codes include 0DV14ZZ (esophagus, upper), 0DV24ZZ (esophagus, middle), 0DV34ZZ (esophagus, lower), 0DV54ZZ (esophagus), 0DV64ZZ (stomach), 0DV74ZZ (stomach, pylorus) and 15 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0DV40ZZ (open), 0DV43ZZ (percutaneous), 0DV47ZZ (via natural or artificial opening) and 0DV48ZZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).

With a different device, use 0DV44CZ (extraluminal device) and 0DV44DZ (intraluminal device).

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 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 “Stomach, Esophageal and Duodenal Procedures”, “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries” and “Other O.R. Procedures for Multiple Significant Trauma”.

It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
