About 0PWD34Z

0PWD34Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a revision procedure on the left humeral head using a percutaneous approach with internal fixation device. In ICD-10-PCS, revision means correcting, to the extent possible, a portion of a malfunctioning device or the position of a displaced device.

In plain terms, this corresponds to other incision of bone without division, humerus, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (77.12).

For a different body part, codes include 0PW034Z (sternum), 0PW134Z (ribs, 1 to 2), 0PW234Z (ribs, 3 or more), 0PW334Z (cervical vertebra), 0PW434Z (thoracic vertebra), 0PW534Z (right scapula) and 20 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0PWD04Z (open), 0PWD44Z (percutaneous endoscopic) and 0PWDX4Z (external).

With a different device, use 0PWD35Z (external fixation device), 0PWD37Z (autologous tissue substitute), 0PWD3JZ (synthetic substitute) and 0PWD3KZ (nonautologous tissue substitute).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 495 (Local Excision and Removal of Internal Fixation Devices Except Hip and Femur with MCC), DRG 496 (Local Excision and Removal of Internal Fixation Devices Except Hip and Femur with CC) and DRG 497 (Local Excision and Removal of Internal Fixation Devices Except Hip and Femur without CC/MCC), under the surgical category “Local Excision and Removal of Internal Fixation Devices Except Hip and Femur”.

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