About 0FCG4ZZ

0FCG4ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a extirpation procedure on the pancreas using a percutaneous endoscopic approach. In ICD-10-PCS, extirpation means taking or cutting out solid matter from a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to other pancreatotomy, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (52.09).

For a different body part, codes include 0FC04ZZ (liver), 0FC14ZZ (liver, right lobe), 0FC24ZZ (liver, left lobe), 0FC44ZZ (gallbladder), 0FC54ZZ (right hepatic duct), 0FC64ZZ (left hepatic duct) and 6 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0FCG0ZZ (open), 0FCG3ZZ (percutaneous) and 0FCG8ZZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 405 (Pancreas, Liver and Shunt Procedures with MCC), DRG 406 (Pancreas, Liver and Shunt Procedures with CC) and DRG 407 (Pancreas, Liver and Shunt Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical category “Pancreas, Liver and Shunt Procedures”.

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