About 0VWRXCZ

0VWRXCZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a revision procedure on the vas deferens using an external approach with extraluminal device. 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 other miscellaneous procedures, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (99.99).

For a different body part, codes include 0VWMXCZ (epididymis and spermatic cord).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0VWR0CZ (open), 0VWR3CZ (percutaneous), 0VWR4CZ (percutaneous endoscopic), 0VWR7CZ (via natural or artificial opening) and 0VWR8CZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).

With a different device, use 0VWRX0Z (drainage device), 0VWRX3Z (infusion device), 0VWRX7Z (autologous tissue substitute), 0VWRXDZ (intraluminal device), 0VWRXJZ (synthetic substitute) and 0VWRXKZ (nonautologous tissue substitute).

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.
