About 10J27ZZ

10J27ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a inspection procedure on the products of conception, ectopic using a via natural or artificial opening approach. In ICD-10-PCS, inspection means visually and/or manually exploring a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to other diagnostic procedures on fetus and amnion, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (75.35).

For a different body part, codes include 10J07ZZ (products of conception) and 10J17ZZ (products of conception, retained).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 10J20ZZ (open), 10J23ZZ (percutaneous), 10J24ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic), 10J28ZZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic) and 10J2XZZ (external).

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.
