About 0FC77ZZ

0FC77ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a extirpation procedure on the hepatic duct, common using a via natural or artificial opening approach. In ICD-10-PCS, extirpation means taking or cutting out solid matter from a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to other percutaneous procedures on biliary tract, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (51.98).

For a different body part, codes include 0FC57ZZ (right hepatic duct), 0FC67ZZ (left hepatic duct), 0FC87ZZ (cystic duct), 0FC97ZZ (common bile duct), 0FCC7ZZ (ampulla of vater), 0FCD7ZZ (pancreatic duct) and 1 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0FC70ZZ (open), 0FC73ZZ (percutaneous), 0FC74ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic) and 0FC78ZZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).

It doesn't appear in the MS-DRG procedure index, so on its own it doesn't change the DRG assignment.

It was added in FY2018, effective October 1, 2017.
