About 0UT90ZZ
0UT90ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a resection procedure on the uterus using an open approach. In ICD-10-PCS, resection means cutting out or off, without replacement, all of a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to other and unspecified total abdominal hysterectomy and other and unspecified hysterectomy, the ICD-9-CM procedure titles it maps to (68.49 and 68.9).
For a different body part, codes include 0UT00ZZ (right ovary), 0UT10ZZ (left ovary), 0UT20ZZ (bilateral ovaries), 0UT40ZZ (uterine supporting structure), 0UT50ZZ (right fallopian tube), 0UT60ZZ (left fallopian tube) and 8 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0UT94ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic), 0UT97ZZ (via natural or artificial opening), 0UT98ZZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic) and 0UT9FZZ (via natural or artificial opening with percutaneous endoscopic assistance).
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.
