About 0UQ98ZZ

0UQ98ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a repair procedure on the uterus using a via natural or artificial opening endoscopic 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 other repair of uterus, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (69.49).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0UQ90ZZ (open), 0UQ93ZZ (percutaneous), 0UQ94ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic) and 0UQ97ZZ (via natural or artificial opening).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 344 (Minor Small and Large Bowel Procedures with MCC), DRG 345 (Minor Small and Large Bowel Procedures with CC), DRG 346 (Minor Small and Large Bowel Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 731 (Uterine and Adnexa Procedures for Malignancy with MCC), DRG 732 (Uterine and Adnexa Procedures for Malignancy with CC) and DRG 733 (Uterine and Adnexa Procedures for Malignancy without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Minor Small and Large Bowel Procedures”, “Uterine and Adnexa Procedures for Malignancy”, “Uterine and Adnexa Procedures for Non-Malignancy” and 2 more.
