About 0S5N3ZZ

0S5N3ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a destruction procedure on the left metatarsal-phalangeal joint using a percutaneous approach. In ICD-10-PCS, destruction means physical eradication of all or a portion of a body part by the direct use of energy, force, or a destructive agent.

In plain terms, this corresponds to other local excision or destruction of lesion of joint, unspecified site and other local excision or destruction of lesion of joint, foot and toe, the ICD-9-CM procedure titles it maps to (80.80 and 80.88).

For a different body part, codes include 0S503ZZ (lumbar vertebral joint), 0S523ZZ (lumbar vertebral disc), 0S533ZZ (lumbosacral joint), 0S543ZZ (lumbosacral disc), 0S553ZZ (sacrococcygeal joint), 0S563ZZ (coccygeal joint) and 15 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0S5N0ZZ (open) and 0S5N4ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 503 (Foot Procedures with MCC), DRG 504 (Foot Procedures with CC), DRG 505 (Foot Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 628 (Other Endocrine, Nutritional and Metabolic O.R.
