ICD-9-CM procedure code (retired)
05.11 — Biopsy of sympathetic nerve or ganglion
About ICD-9-CM 05.11
05.11 is an ICD-9-CM procedure code for biopsy of sympathetic nerve or ganglion. ICD-9-CM was retired for U.S. claims on October 1, 2015, when ICD-10-PCS took over.
The CMS General Equivalence Mappings translate it to 30 ICD-10-PCS codes, such as 019K0ZX (Drainage of Head and Neck Sympathetic Nerve, Open Approach, Diagnostic), 019K3ZX (Drainage of Head and Neck Sympathetic Nerve, Percutaneous Approach, Diagnostic) and 019K4ZX (Drainage of Head and Neck Sympathetic Nerve, Percutaneous Endoscopic Approach, Diagnostic). All of these are approximate matches, so review the record to pick the right one.
