About 0SWB05Z

0SWB05Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a revision procedure on the left hip joint using an open approach with external 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 arthrotomy, hip, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (80.15).

For a different body part, codes include 0SW905Z (right hip joint), 0SWC05Z (right knee joint), 0SWD05Z (left knee joint), 0SWF05Z (right ankle joint), 0SWG05Z (left ankle joint), 0SWH05Z (right tarsal joint) and 7 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0SWB35Z (percutaneous), 0SWB45Z (percutaneous endoscopic) and 0SWBX5Z (external).

With a different device, use 0SWB00Z (drainage device), 0SWB03Z (infusion device), 0SWB04Z (internal fixation device), 0SWB07Z (autologous tissue substitute), 0SWB08Z (spacer), 0SWB09Z (liner) and 3 more.

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 480 (Hip and Femur Procedures Except Major Joint with MCC or Insertion of Antibiotic-eluting Bone Void Filler), DRG 481 (Hip and Femur Procedures Except Major Joint with CC), DRG 482 (Hip and Femur Procedures Except Major Joint without CC/MCC), DRG 907 (Other O.R.
