About 0S5J0ZZ

0S5J0ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a destruction procedure on the left tarsal joint using an open approach. In ICD-10-PCS, destruction means physical eradication of all or a portion of a body part by the direct use of energy, force, or a destructive agent.

In plain terms, this corresponds to other local excision or destruction of lesion of joint, foot and toe, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (80.88).

For a different body part, codes include 0S500ZZ (lumbar vertebral joint), 0S520ZZ (lumbar vertebral disc), 0S530ZZ (lumbosacral joint), 0S540ZZ (lumbosacral disc), 0S550ZZ (sacrococcygeal joint), 0S560ZZ (coccygeal joint) and 15 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0S5J3ZZ (percutaneous) and 0S5J4ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 503 (Foot Procedures with MCC), DRG 504 (Foot Procedures with CC), DRG 505 (Foot Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 628 (Other Endocrine, Nutritional and Metabolic O.R. Procedures with MCC or Insertion of Antibiotic-eluting Bone Void Filler), DRG 629 (Other Endocrine, Nutritional and Metabolic O.R. Procedures with CC) and DRG 630 (Other Endocrine, Nutritional and Metabolic O.R. Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Foot Procedures”, “Other Endocrine, Nutritional and Metabolic O.R. Procedures”, “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries” and 1 more.
