About 0TPD4LZ
0TPD4LZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a removal procedure on the urethra using a percutaneous endoscopic 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 0TPB4LZ (bladder).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0TPD0LZ (open), 0TPD3LZ (percutaneous), 0TPD7LZ (via natural or artificial opening), 0TPD8LZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic) and 0TPDXLZ (external).
With a different device, use 0TPD40Z (drainage device), 0TPD42Z (monitoring device), 0TPD43Z (infusion device), 0TPD47Z (autologous tissue substitute), 0TPD4CZ (extraluminal device), 0TPD4DZ (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.
