About 0TBD4ZZ
0TBD4ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a excision procedure on the urethra using a percutaneous 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 endoscopic excision or destruction of lesion or tissue of urethra and excision of periurethral tissue, the ICD-9-CM procedure titles it maps to (58.31 and 58.92).
For a different body part, codes include 0TB04ZZ (right kidney), 0TB14ZZ (left kidney), 0TB34ZZ (right kidney pelvis), 0TB44ZZ (left kidney pelvis), 0TB64ZZ (right ureter), 0TB74ZZ (left ureter) and 2 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0TBD0ZZ (open), 0TBD3ZZ (percutaneous), 0TBD7ZZ (via natural or artificial opening), 0TBD8ZZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic) and 0TBDXZZ (external).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 671 (Urethral Procedures with CC/MCC) and DRG 672 (Urethral Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical category “Urethral Procedures”.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
