About 0VB14ZX
0VB14ZX is the ICD-10-PCS code for a excision procedure on the right seminal vesicle using a percutaneous endoscopic approach (qualifier: diagnostic). In ICD-10-PCS, excision means cutting out or off, without replacement, a portion of a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to closed [percutaneous] biopsy of seminal vesicles, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (60.13).
For a different body part, codes include 0VB04ZX (prostate), 0VB24ZX (left seminal vesicle), 0VB34ZX (bilateral seminal vesicles), 0VB54ZX (scrotum), 0VB64ZX (right tunica vaginalis), 0VB74ZX (left tunica vaginalis) and 14 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0VB10ZX (open) and 0VB13ZX (percutaneous).
It doesn't appear in the MS-DRG procedure index, so on its own it doesn't change the DRG assignment.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
