About 0ULG7ZZ

0ULG7ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a occlusion procedure on the vagina using a via natural or artificial opening approach. In ICD-10-PCS, occlusion means completely closing an orifice or the lumen of a tubular body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to Obliteration of vaginal vault, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (70.8).

For a different body part, codes include 0UL57ZZ (right fallopian tube), 0UL67ZZ (left fallopian tube), 0UL77ZZ (bilateral fallopian tubes) and 0ULF7ZZ (cul-de-sac).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0ULG8ZZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).

With a different device, use 0ULG7DZ (intraluminal device).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 748 (Female Reproductive System Reconstructive Procedures), under the surgical category “Female Reproductive System Reconstructive Procedures”.

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