About 0VC14ZZ

0VC14ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a extirpation procedure on the right seminal vesicle using a percutaneous endoscopic approach. In ICD-10-PCS, extirpation means taking or cutting out solid matter from a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to incision of seminal vesicle, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (60.72).

For a different body part, codes include 0VC04ZZ (prostate), 0VC24ZZ (left seminal vesicle), 0VC34ZZ (bilateral seminal vesicles), 0VC54ZZ (scrotum), 0VC64ZZ (right tunica vaginalis), 0VC74ZZ (left tunica vaginalis) and 14 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0VC10ZZ (open) and 0VC13ZZ (percutaneous).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 715 (Male Reproductive System and Other O.R. Procedures for Malignancy with CC/MCC), DRG 716 (Male Reproductive System and Other O.R. Procedures for Malignancy without CC/MCC), DRG 717 (Other Male Reproductive System O.R. Procedures with CC/MCC) and DRG 718 (Other Male Reproductive System O.R. Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “” and “Other Male Reproductive System O.R. Procedures”.

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