About 0UBF4ZZ

0UBF4ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a excision procedure on the cul-de-sac using a percutaneous endoscopic 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 excision or destruction of lesion of cul-de-sac, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (70.32).

For a different body part, codes include 0UB04ZZ (right ovary), 0UB14ZZ (left ovary), 0UB24ZZ (bilateral ovaries), 0UB44ZZ (uterine supporting structure), 0UB54ZZ (right fallopian tube), 0UB64ZZ (left fallopian tube) and 5 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0UBF0ZZ (open), 0UBF3ZZ (percutaneous), 0UBF7ZZ (via natural or artificial opening) and 0UBF8ZZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 746 (Vagina, Cervix and Vulva Procedures with CC/MCC) and DRG 747 (Vagina, Cervix and Vulva Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical category “Vagina, Cervix and Vulva Procedures”.

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