About 0FQ97ZZ

0FQ97ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a repair procedure on the common bile duct using a via natural or artificial opening approach. In ICD-10-PCS, repair means restoring, to the extent possible, a body part to its normal anatomic structure and function.

In plain terms, this corresponds to simple suture of common bile duct and Choledochoplasty, the ICD-9-CM procedure titles it maps to (51.71 and 51.72).

For a different body part, codes include 0FQ57ZZ (right hepatic duct), 0FQ67ZZ (left hepatic duct), 0FQ77ZZ (hepatic duct, common), 0FQ87ZZ (cystic duct), 0FQC7ZZ (ampulla of vater), 0FQD7ZZ (pancreatic duct) and 1 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0FQ90ZZ (open), 0FQ93ZZ (percutaneous), 0FQ94ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic) and 0FQ98ZZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 408 (Biliary Tract Procedures Except Only Cholecystectomy with or without C.D.E. with MCC), DRG 409 (Biliary Tract Procedures Except Only Cholecystectomy with or without C.D.E. with CC), DRG 410 (Biliary Tract Procedures Except Only Cholecystectomy with or without C.D.E. 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 “Biliary Tract Procedures Except Only Cholecystectomy with or without C.D.E.”, “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.
