About 0TL40CZ
0TL40CZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a occlusion procedure on the left kidney pelvis using an open approach with extraluminal device. In ICD-10-PCS, occlusion means completely closing an orifice or the lumen of a tubular body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to other operations on kidney, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (55.99).
For a different body part, codes include 0TL30CZ (right kidney pelvis), 0TL60CZ (right ureter), 0TL70CZ (left ureter), 0TLB0CZ (bladder), 0TLC0CZ (bladder neck) and 0TLD0CZ (urethra).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0TL43CZ (percutaneous) and 0TL44CZ (percutaneous endoscopic).
With a different device, use 0TL40DZ (intraluminal device) and 0TL40ZZ (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.
