About 0VTS4ZZ
0VTS4ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a resection procedure on the penis 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 amputation of penis, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (64.3).
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 0VTS0ZZ (open) and 0VTSXZZ (external).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 709 (Penis Procedures with CC/MCC) and DRG 710 (Penis Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical category “Penis Procedures”.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
