About 0KB60ZZ

0KB60ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a excision procedure on the left shoulder muscle using an open 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 excision of lesion of muscle and other myectomy, the ICD-9-CM procedure titles it maps to (83.32 and 83.45).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0KB63ZZ (percutaneous) and 0KB64ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 040 (Peripheral, Cranial Nerve and Other Nervous System Procedures with MCC), DRG 041 (Peripheral, Cranial Nerve and Other Nervous System Procedures with CC or Peripheral Neurostimulator), DRG 042 (Peripheral, Cranial Nerve and Other Nervous System Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 361 (Other Circulatory System O.R.
