About 0TBC3ZZ
0TBC3ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a excision procedure on the bladder neck using a percutaneous approach. In ICD-10-PCS, excision means cutting out or off, without replacement, a portion of a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to open excision or destruction of other lesion or tissue of bladder, partial cystectomy and excision of perirenal or perivesical tissue, the ICD-9-CM procedure titles it maps to (57.59, 57.6 and 59.91).
For a different body part, codes include 0TB03ZZ (right kidney), 0TB13ZZ (left kidney), 0TB33ZZ (right kidney pelvis), 0TB43ZZ (left kidney pelvis), 0TB63ZZ (right ureter), 0TB73ZZ (left ureter) and 2 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0TBC0ZZ (open), 0TBC4ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic), 0TBC7ZZ (via natural or artificial opening) and 0TBC8ZZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 653 (Major Bladder Procedures with MCC), DRG 654 (Major Bladder Procedures with CC), DRG 655 (Major Bladder Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 707 (Major Male Pelvic Procedures with CC/MCC), DRG 708 (Major Male Pelvic Procedures without CC/MCC) and DRG 749 (Other Female Reproductive System O.R. Procedures with CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Major Bladder Procedures”, “Major Male Pelvic Procedures”, “Other Female Reproductive System O.R. Procedures” and 4 more.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
