About 0T5D7ZZ
0T5D7ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a destruction procedure on the urethra using a via natural or artificial opening approach. In ICD-10-PCS, destruction means physical eradication of all or a portion of a body part by the direct use of energy, force, or a destructive agent.
In plain terms, this corresponds to other local excision or destruction of lesion or tissue of urethra, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (58.39).
For a different body part, codes include 0T507ZZ (right kidney), 0T517ZZ (left kidney), 0T537ZZ (right kidney pelvis), 0T547ZZ (left kidney pelvis), 0T567ZZ (right ureter), 0T577ZZ (left ureter) and 2 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0T5D0ZZ (open), 0T5D3ZZ (percutaneous), 0T5D4ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic), 0T5D8ZZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic) and 0T5DXZZ (external).
It doesn't appear in the MS-DRG procedure index, so on its own it doesn't change the DRG assignment.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
