About 0UCF7ZZ

0UCF7ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a extirpation procedure on the cul-de-sac using a via natural or artificial opening approach. In ICD-10-PCS, extirpation means taking or cutting out solid matter from a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to Culdotomy, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (70.12).

For a different body part, codes include 0UC57ZZ (right fallopian tube), 0UC67ZZ (left fallopian tube), 0UC77ZZ (bilateral fallopian tubes), 0UC97ZZ (uterus), 0UCB7ZZ (endometrium), 0UCC7ZZ (cervix) and 2 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0UCF0ZZ (open), 0UCF3ZZ (percutaneous), 0UCF4ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic) and 0UCF8ZZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 749 (Other Female Reproductive System O.R. Procedures with CC/MCC) and DRG 750 (Other Female Reproductive System O.R. Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical category “Other Female Reproductive System O.R. Procedures”.

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