About 0VTN4ZZ
0VTN4ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a resection procedure on the right vas deferens using a percutaneous 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 Vasectomy, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (63.73).
For a different body part, codes include 0VT04ZZ (prostate), 0VT14ZZ (right seminal vesicle), 0VT24ZZ (left seminal vesicle), 0VT34ZZ (bilateral seminal vesicles), 0VT54ZZ (scrotum), 0VT64ZZ (right tunica vaginalis) and 14 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0VTN0ZZ (open).
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.
