About 10908ZA

10908ZA is the ICD-10-PCS code for a drainage procedure on the products of conception using a via natural or artificial opening endoscopic approach (qualifier: fetal cerebrospinal fluid). In ICD-10-PCS, drainage means taking or letting out fluids and/or gases from a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to operations on fetus to facilitate delivery, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (73.8).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 10900ZA (open), 10903ZA (percutaneous), 10904ZA (percutaneous endoscopic) and 10907ZA (via natural or artificial opening).

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.
