About 0TQDXZZ

0TQDXZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a repair procedure on the urethra using an external approach. In ICD-10-PCS, repair means restoring, to the extent possible, a body part to its normal anatomic structure and function.

In plain terms, this corresponds to suture of laceration of urethra and urethral meatoplasty, the ICD-9-CM procedure titles it maps to (58.41 and 58.47).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0TQD0ZZ (open), 0TQD3ZZ (percutaneous), 0TQD4ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic), 0TQD7ZZ (via natural or artificial opening) and 0TQD8ZZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 671 (Urethral Procedures with CC/MCC), DRG 672 (Urethral Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 709 (Penis Procedures with CC/MCC), DRG 710 (Penis Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 820 (Lymphoma and Leukemia with Major O.R. Procedures with MCC) and DRG 821 (Lymphoma and Leukemia with Major O.R. Procedures with CC), under the surgical categories “Urethral Procedures”, “Penis Procedures”, “Lymphoma and Leukemia with Major O.R. Procedures” and 3 more.

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