About 0TQ37ZZ

0TQ37ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a repair procedure on the right kidney pelvis using a via natural or artificial opening approach. In ICD-10-PCS, repair means restoring, to the extent possible, a body part to its normal anatomic structure and function.

In plain terms, this corresponds to correction of ureteropelvic junction, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (55.87).

For a different body part, codes include 0TQ07ZZ (right kidney), 0TQ17ZZ (left kidney), 0TQ47ZZ (left kidney pelvis), 0TQ67ZZ (right ureter), 0TQ77ZZ (left ureter), 0TQB7ZZ (bladder) and 2 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0TQ30ZZ (open), 0TQ33ZZ (percutaneous), 0TQ34ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic) and 0TQ38ZZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).

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.
