About 0SWG4JZ

0SWG4JZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a revision procedure on the left ankle joint using a percutaneous endoscopic approach with synthetic 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 revision of joint replacement of lower extremity, not elsewhere classified, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (81.59).

For a different body part, codes include 0SW04JZ (lumbar vertebral joint), 0SW24JZ (lumbar vertebral disc), 0SW34JZ (lumbosacral joint), 0SW44JZ (lumbosacral disc), 0SW54JZ (sacrococcygeal joint), 0SW64JZ (coccygeal joint) and 23 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0SWG0JZ (open), 0SWG3JZ (percutaneous) and 0SWGXJZ (external).

With a different device, use 0SWG40Z (drainage device), 0SWG43Z (infusion device), 0SWG44Z (internal fixation device), 0SWG45Z (external fixation device), 0SWG47Z (autologous tissue substitute), 0SWG48Z (spacer) and 1 more.

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 515 (Other Musculoskeletal System and Connective Tissue O.R. Procedures with MCC), DRG 516 (Other Musculoskeletal System and Connective Tissue O.R. Procedures with CC), DRG 517 (Other Musculoskeletal System and Connective Tissue O.R. Procedures 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 “Other Musculoskeletal System and Connective Tissue O.R. Procedures”, “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.
