About 0CVB8ZZ
0CVB8ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a restriction procedure on the right parotid duct using a via natural or artificial opening endoscopic approach. In ICD-10-PCS, restriction means partially closing an orifice or the lumen of a tubular body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to other repair and plastic operations on salivary gland or duct, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (26.49).
For a different body part, codes include 0CVC8ZZ (left parotid duct).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0CVB0ZZ (open), 0CVB3ZZ (percutaneous) and 0CVB7ZZ (via natural or artificial opening).
With a different device, use 0CVB8DZ (intraluminal device).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 139 (Salivary Gland Procedures), DRG 907 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with MCC), DRG 908 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with CC), DRG 909 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries without CC/MCC), DRG 957 (Other O.R. Procedures for Multiple Significant Trauma with MCC) and DRG 958 (Other O.R. Procedures for Multiple Significant Trauma with CC), under the surgical categories “Salivary Gland Procedures”, “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries” and “Other O.R. Procedures for Multiple Significant Trauma”.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
