About 0TC47ZZ
0TC47ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a extirpation procedure on the left kidney pelvis using a via natural or artificial opening approach. In ICD-10-PCS, extirpation means taking or cutting out solid matter from a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to transurethral removal of obstruction from ureter and renal pelvis, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (56.0).
For a different body part, codes include 0TC07ZZ (right kidney), 0TC17ZZ (left kidney), 0TC37ZZ (right kidney pelvis), 0TC67ZZ (right ureter), 0TC77ZZ (left ureter), 0TCB7ZZ (bladder) and 2 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0TC40ZZ (open), 0TC43ZZ (percutaneous), 0TC44ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic) and 0TC48ZZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 668 (Transurethral Procedures with MCC), DRG 669 (Transurethral Procedures with CC), DRG 670 (Transurethral 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 “Transurethral 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.
