About 0TPD3LZ

0TPD3LZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a removal procedure on the urethra using a percutaneous approach with artificial sphincter. In ICD-10-PCS, removal means taking out or off a device from a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to other operations on urethra and periurethral tissue, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (58.99).

For a different body part, codes include 0TPB3LZ (bladder).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0TPD0LZ (open), 0TPD4LZ (percutaneous endoscopic), 0TPD7LZ (via natural or artificial opening), 0TPD8LZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic) and 0TPDXLZ (external).

With a different device, use 0TPD30Z (drainage device), 0TPD32Z (monitoring device), 0TPD33Z (infusion device), 0TPD37Z (autologous tissue substitute), 0TPD3CZ (extraluminal device), 0TPD3DZ (intraluminal device) and 3 more.

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 671 (Urethral Procedures with CC/MCC), DRG 672 (Urethral Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 715 (Male Reproductive System and Other O.R. Procedures for Malignancy with CC/MCC), DRG 716 (Male Reproductive System and Other O.R. Procedures for Malignancy without CC/MCC), DRG 717 (Other Male Reproductive System O.R. Procedures with CC/MCC) and DRG 718 (Other Male Reproductive System O.R. Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Urethral Procedures”, “”, “Other Male Reproductive System O.R.
