About 0T180KB
0T180KB is the ICD-10-PCS code for a bypass procedure on the bilateral ureters using an open approach with nonautologous tissue substitute (qualifier: bladder). In ICD-10-PCS, bypass means altering the route of passage of the contents of a tubular body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to Ureteroneocystostomy, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (56.74).
For a different body part, codes include 0T130KB (right kidney pelvis), 0T140KB (left kidney pelvis), 0T160KB (right ureter) and 0T170KB (left ureter).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0T184KB (percutaneous endoscopic).
With a different device, use 0T1807B (autologous tissue substitute), 0T180JB (synthetic substitute) and 0T180ZB (no device).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 656 (Kidney and Ureter Procedures for Neoplasm with MCC), DRG 657 (Kidney and Ureter Procedures for Neoplasm with CC), DRG 658 (Kidney and Ureter Procedures for Neoplasm without CC/MCC), DRG 659 (Kidney and Ureter Procedures for Non-Neoplasm with MCC), DRG 660 (Kidney and Ureter Procedures for Non-Neoplasm with CC) and DRG 661 (Kidney and Ureter Procedures for Non-Neoplasm without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “”, “Kidney and Ureter Procedures for Non-Neoplasm”, “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries” and 1 more.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
