About 0VSH3ZZ

0VSH3ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a reposition procedure on the bilateral spermatic cords using a percutaneous approach. In ICD-10-PCS, reposition means moving to its normal location, or other suitable location, all or a portion of a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to transplantation of spermatic cord, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (63.53).

For a different body part, codes include 0VS93ZZ (right testis), 0VSB3ZZ (left testis), 0VSC3ZZ (bilateral testes), 0VSF3ZZ (right spermatic cord) and 0VSG3ZZ (left spermatic cord).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0VSH0ZZ (open), 0VSH4ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic) and 0VSH8ZZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 711 (Testes Procedures with CC/MCC), DRG 712 (Testes Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 907 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with MCC), DRG 908 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with CC), DRG 909 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries without CC/MCC) and DRG 957 (Other O.R. Procedures for Multiple Significant Trauma with MCC), under the surgical categories “Testes Procedures”, “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries” and “Other O.R. Procedures for Multiple Significant Trauma”.

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