About 0XQ43ZZ
0XQ43ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a repair procedure on the right axilla using a percutaneous approach. In ICD-10-PCS, repair means restoring, to the extent possible, a body part to its normal anatomic structure and function.
In plain terms, this corresponds to other operations on musculoskeletal system, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (84.99).
For a different body part, codes include 0XQ23ZZ (right shoulder region), 0XQ33ZZ (left shoulder region), 0XQ53ZZ (left axilla), 0XQ63ZZ (right upper extremity), 0XQ73ZZ (left upper extremity), 0XQ83ZZ (right upper arm) and 19 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0XQ40ZZ (open), 0XQ44ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic) and 0XQ4XZZ (external).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for 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), DRG 957 (Other O.R. Procedures for Multiple Significant Trauma with MCC), DRG 958 (Other O.R. Procedures for Multiple Significant Trauma with CC) and DRG 959 (Other O.R. Procedures for Multiple Significant Trauma without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “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.
