About 0UC23ZZ
0UC23ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a extirpation procedure on the bilateral ovaries using a percutaneous approach. In ICD-10-PCS, extirpation means taking or cutting out solid matter from a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to other oophorotomy, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (65.09).
For a different body part, codes include 0UC03ZZ (right ovary), 0UC13ZZ (left ovary), 0UC43ZZ (uterine supporting structure), 0UC53ZZ (right fallopian tube), 0UC63ZZ (left fallopian tube), 0UC73ZZ (bilateral fallopian tubes) and 6 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0UC20ZZ (open), 0UC24ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic) and 0UC28ZZ (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.
