About 0GB04ZZ

0GB04ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a excision procedure on the pituitary gland using a percutaneous endoscopic approach. In ICD-10-PCS, excision means cutting out or off, without replacement, a portion of a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to partial excision of pituitary gland, unspecified approach, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (07.63).

For a different body part, codes include 0GB14ZZ (pineal body), 0GB24ZZ (left adrenal gland), 0GB34ZZ (right adrenal gland), 0GB44ZZ (bilateral adrenal glands), 0GB64ZZ (left carotid body), 0GB74ZZ (right carotid body) and 15 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0GB00ZZ (open) and 0GB03ZZ (percutaneous).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 023 (Craniotomy with Major Device Implant or Acute Complex CNS Principal Diagnosis with MCC or Antineoplastic Implant or Epilepsy with Neurostimulator), DRG 024 (Craniotomy with Major Device Implant or Acute Complex CNS Principal Diagnosis without MCC), DRG 025 (Craniotomy and Endovascular Intracranial Procedures with MCC), DRG 026 (Craniotomy and Endovascular Intracranial Procedures with CC), DRG 027 (Craniotomy and Endovascular Intracranial Procedures without CC/MCC) and DRG 579 (Other Skin, Subcutaneous Tissue and Breast Procedures with MCC), under the surgical categories “Craniotomy with Major Device Implant or Acute Complex CNS Principal Diagnosis”, “Craniotomy and endovascular intracranial procedures”, “Other Skin, Subcutaneous Tissue and Breast Procedures” and 1 more.

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