About 07Q08ZZ

07Q08ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a repair procedure on the lymphatic, head using a via natural or artificial opening endoscopic approach. In ICD-10-PCS, repair means restoring, to the extent possible, a body part to its normal anatomic structure and function.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 07Q00ZZ (open), 07Q03ZZ (percutaneous) and 07Q04ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic).
