63.3 is an ICD-9-CM procedure code for excision of other lesion or tissue of spermatic cord and epididymis. 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 54 ICD-10-PCS codes, such as 0V5F0ZZ (Destruction of Right Spermatic Cord, Open Approach), 0V5F3ZZ (Destruction of Right Spermatic Cord, Percutaneous Approach) and 0V5F4ZZ (Destruction of Right Spermatic Cord, Percutaneous Endoscopic Approach). All of these are approximate matches, so review the record to pick the right one.
