About 0G920ZZ
0G920ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a drainage procedure on the left adrenal gland using an open approach. In ICD-10-PCS, drainage means taking or letting out fluids and/or gases from a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to incision of adrenal gland, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (07.41).
For a different body part, codes include 0G900ZZ (pituitary gland), 0G910ZZ (pineal body), 0G930ZZ (right adrenal gland), 0G940ZZ (bilateral adrenal glands), 0G960ZZ (left carotid body), 0G970ZZ (right carotid body) and 15 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0G923ZZ (percutaneous) and 0G924ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic).
With a different device, use 0G9200Z (drainage device).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 614 (Adrenal and Pituitary Procedures with CC/MCC) and DRG 615 (Adrenal and Pituitary Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical category “Adrenal and Pituitary Procedures”.
