0M9R40ZDrainage of Left Ankle Bursa and Ligament with Drainage Device, Percutaneous Endoscopic Approach

0M9R40Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a drainage procedure on the left ankle bursa and ligament using a percutaneous endoscopic approach with drainage device. In ICD-10-PCS, drainage means taking or letting out fluids and/or gases from a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to other arthrotomy, ankle and aspiration of bursa, the ICD-9-CM procedure titles it maps to (80.17 and 83.94).

For a different body part, codes include 0M9040Z (head and neck bursa and ligament), 0M9140Z (right shoulder bursa and ligament), 0M9240Z (left shoulder bursa and ligament), 0M9340Z (right elbow bursa and ligament), 0M9440Z (left elbow bursa and ligament), 0M9540Z (right wrist bursa and ligament) and 21 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0M9R00Z (open) and 0M9R30Z (percutaneous).

With a different device, use 0M9R4ZZ (no device).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 492 (Lower Extremity and Humerus Procedures Except Hip, Foot and Femur with MCC or Insertion of Antibiotic-eluting Bone Void Filler), DRG 493 (Lower Extremity and Humerus Procedures Except Hip, Foot and Femur with CC), DRG 494 (Lower Extremity and Humerus Procedures Except Hip, Foot and Femur without CC/MCC), DRG 907 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with MCC), DRG 908 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with CC) and DRG 909 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Lower Extremity and Humerus Procedures Except Hip, Foot and Femur” and “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries”.

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