About 0UB93ZZ

0UB93ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a excision procedure on the uterus using a percutaneous approach. In ICD-10-PCS, excision means cutting out or off, without replacement, a portion of a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to other excision or destruction of lesion of uterus, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (68.29).

For a different body part, codes include 0UB03ZZ (right ovary), 0UB13ZZ (left ovary), 0UB23ZZ (bilateral ovaries), 0UB43ZZ (uterine supporting structure), 0UB53ZZ (right fallopian tube), 0UB63ZZ (left fallopian tube) and 5 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0UB90ZZ (open), 0UB94ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic), 0UB97ZZ (via natural or artificial opening) and 0UB98ZZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 731 (Uterine and Adnexa Procedures for Malignancy with MCC), DRG 732 (Uterine and Adnexa Procedures for Malignancy with CC), DRG 733 (Uterine and Adnexa Procedures for Malignancy without CC/MCC), DRG 742 (Uterine and Adnexa Procedures for Non-Malignancy with CC/MCC) and DRG 743 (Uterine and Adnexa Procedures for Non-Malignancy without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Uterine and Adnexa Procedures for Malignancy” and “Uterine and Adnexa Procedures for Non-Malignancy”.

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