About 0WPN0YZ

0WPN0YZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a removal procedure on the perineum, female using an open approach with other device. In ICD-10-PCS, removal means taking out or off a device from a body part.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0WPN3YZ (percutaneous), 0WPN4YZ (percutaneous endoscopic) and 0WPNXYZ (external).
