About 0SBF4ZZ
0SBF4ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a excision procedure on the right ankle joint 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 Synovectomy, ankle and other excision of joint, ankle, the ICD-9-CM procedure titles it maps to (80.77 and 80.97).
For a different body part, codes include 0SB04ZZ (lumbar vertebral joint), 0SB24ZZ (lumbar vertebral disc), 0SB34ZZ (lumbosacral joint), 0SB44ZZ (lumbosacral disc), 0SB54ZZ (sacrococcygeal joint), 0SB64ZZ (coccygeal joint) and 15 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0SBF0ZZ (open) and 0SBF3ZZ (percutaneous).
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”, “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries” and “Other O.R. Procedures for Multiple Significant Trauma”.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
