0SGQ33Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a fusion procedure on the left toe phalangeal joint using a percutaneous approach with internal fixation device, sustained compression. In ICD-10-PCS, fusion means joining together portions of an articular body part rendering the articular body part immobile.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0SGQ03Z (open) and 0SGQ43Z (percutaneous endoscopic).
