About 0TWD72Z

0TWD72Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a revision procedure on the urethra using a via natural or artificial opening approach with monitoring device. In ICD-10-PCS, revision means correcting, to the extent possible, a portion of a malfunctioning device or the position of a displaced device.

In plain terms, this corresponds to Urethrotomy, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (58.0).

For a different body part, codes include 0TW572Z (kidney), 0TW972Z (ureter) and 0TWB72Z (bladder).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0TWD02Z (open), 0TWD32Z (percutaneous), 0TWD42Z (percutaneous endoscopic), 0TWD82Z (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic) and 0TWDX2Z (external).

With a different device, use 0TWD70Z (drainage device), 0TWD73Z (infusion device), 0TWD77Z (autologous tissue substitute), 0TWD7CZ (extraluminal device), 0TWD7DZ (intraluminal device), 0TWD7JZ (synthetic substitute) 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 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 “Urethral Procedures” and “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries”.

It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
