About 0DB88ZZ

0DB88ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a excision procedure on the small intestine using a via natural or artificial opening endoscopic approach. In ICD-10-PCS, excision means cutting out or off, without replacement, a portion of a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to local excision of lesion or tissue of small intestine, except duodenum and other partial resection of small intestine, the ICD-9-CM procedure titles it maps to (45.33 and 45.62).

For a different body part, codes include 0DB18ZZ (esophagus, upper), 0DB28ZZ (esophagus, middle), 0DB38ZZ (esophagus, lower), 0DB48ZZ (esophagogastric junction), 0DB58ZZ (esophagus), 0DB68ZZ (stomach) and 16 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0DB80ZZ (open), 0DB83ZZ (percutaneous), 0DB84ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic) and 0DB87ZZ (via natural or artificial opening).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 347 (Anal and Stomal Procedures with MCC), DRG 348 (Anal and Stomal Procedures with CC), DRG 349 (Anal and Stomal Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 820 (Lymphoma and Leukemia with Major O.R. Procedures with MCC), DRG 821 (Lymphoma and Leukemia with Major O.R. Procedures with CC) and DRG 822 (Lymphoma and Leukemia with Major O.R. Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Anal and Stomal Procedures”, “Lymphoma and Leukemia with Major O.R. Procedures” and “Myeloproliferative Disorders or Poorly Differentiated Neoplasms with Major O.R. Procedures”.

It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
