About 0LN84ZZ
0LN84ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a release procedure on the left hand tendon using a percutaneous endoscopic approach. In ICD-10-PCS, release means freeing a body part from an abnormal physical constraint by cutting or by the use of force.
In plain terms, this corresponds to lysis of adhesions of hand, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (82.91).
For a different body part, codes include 0LN04ZZ (head and neck tendon), 0LN14ZZ (right shoulder tendon), 0LN24ZZ (left shoulder tendon), 0LN34ZZ (right upper arm tendon), 0LN44ZZ (left upper arm tendon), 0LN54ZZ (right lower arm and wrist tendon) and 21 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0LN80ZZ (open), 0LN83ZZ (percutaneous) and 0LN8XZZ (external).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 513 (Hand or Wrist Procedures, Except Major Thumb or Joint Procedures with CC/MCC), DRG 514 (Hand or Wrist Procedures, Except Major Thumb or Joint Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 579 (Other Skin, Subcutaneous Tissue and Breast Procedures with MCC), DRG 580 (Other Skin, Subcutaneous Tissue and Breast Procedures with CC), DRG 581 (Other Skin, Subcutaneous Tissue and Breast Procedures without CC/MCC) and DRG 906 (Hand Procedures for Injuries), under the surgical categories “Hand or Wrist Procedures, Except Major Thumb or Joint Procedures”, “Other Skin, Subcutaneous Tissue and Breast Procedures”, “Hand Procedures for Injuries” and 1 more.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
