About 0UTG8ZZ

0UTG8ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a resection procedure on the vagina using a via natural or artificial opening endoscopic approach. In ICD-10-PCS, resection means cutting out or off, without replacement, all of a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to Obliteration and total excision of vagina, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (70.4).

For a different body part, codes include 0UT08ZZ (right ovary), 0UT18ZZ (left ovary), 0UT28ZZ (bilateral ovaries), 0UT48ZZ (uterine supporting structure), 0UT58ZZ (right fallopian tube), 0UT68ZZ (left fallopian tube) and 5 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0UTG0ZZ (open), 0UTG4ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic) and 0UTG7ZZ (via natural or artificial opening).

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.
