About 0VWD7JZ

0VWD7JZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a revision procedure on the testis using a via natural or artificial opening approach with synthetic substitute. In ICD-10-PCS, revision means correcting, to the extent possible, a portion of a malfunctioning device or the position of a displaced device.

In plain terms, this corresponds to incision of testis, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (62.0).

For a different body part, codes include 0VW47JZ (prostate and seminal vesicles), 0VW87JZ (scrotum and tunica vaginalis), 0VWM7JZ (epididymis and spermatic cord), 0VWR7JZ (vas deferens) and 0VWS7JZ (penis).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0VWD0JZ (open), 0VWD3JZ (percutaneous), 0VWD4JZ (percutaneous endoscopic), 0VWD8JZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic) and 0VWDXJZ (external).

With a different device, use 0VWD70Z (drainage device), 0VWD73Z (infusion device), 0VWD77Z (autologous tissue substitute), 0VWD7KZ (nonautologous tissue substitute) and 0VWD7YZ (other device).

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.
