About 0SWD37Z

0SWD37Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a revision procedure on the left knee joint using a percutaneous approach with autologous tissue substitute. 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, knee, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (80.16).

For a different body part, codes include 0SW037Z (lumbar vertebral joint), 0SW237Z (lumbar vertebral disc), 0SW337Z (lumbosacral joint), 0SW437Z (lumbosacral disc), 0SW537Z (sacrococcygeal joint), 0SW637Z (coccygeal joint) and 15 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0SWD07Z (open), 0SWD47Z (percutaneous endoscopic) and 0SWDX7Z (external).

With a different device, use 0SWD30Z (drainage device), 0SWD33Z (infusion device), 0SWD34Z (internal fixation device), 0SWD35Z (external fixation device), 0SWD38Z (spacer), 0SWD3JZ (synthetic substitute) and 1 more.

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 400 (Knee Procedures with Principal Diagnosis of Infection), DRG 488 (Knee Procedures without Principal Diagnosis of Infection with CC/MCC), DRG 489 (Knee Procedures without Principal Diagnosis of Infection 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 “Knee Procedures with Principal Diagnosis of Infection”, “Knee Procedures without Principal Diagnosis of Infection” and “Other O.R.
