About 0UW870Z
0UW870Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a revision procedure on the fallopian tube using a via natural or artificial opening approach with drainage device. In ICD-10-PCS, revision means correcting, to the extent possible, a portion of a malfunctioning device or the position of a displaced device.
In plain terms, this corresponds to Salpingotomy, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (66.01).
For a different body part, codes include 0UWD70Z (uterus and cervix) and 0UWH70Z (vagina and cul-de-sac).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0UW800Z (open), 0UW830Z (percutaneous), 0UW840Z (percutaneous endoscopic), 0UW880Z (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic) and 0UW8X0Z (external).
With a different device, use 0UW873Z (infusion device), 0UW877Z (autologous tissue substitute), 0UW87CZ (extraluminal device), 0UW87DZ (intraluminal device), 0UW87JZ (synthetic substitute), 0UW87KZ (nonautologous tissue substitute) and 1 more.
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 731 (Uterine and Adnexa Procedures for Malignancy with MCC), DRG 732 (Uterine and Adnexa Procedures for Malignancy with CC), DRG 733 (Uterine and Adnexa Procedures for Malignancy without CC/MCC), DRG 742 (Uterine and Adnexa Procedures for Non-Malignancy with CC/MCC) and DRG 743 (Uterine and Adnexa Procedures for Non-Malignancy without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Uterine and Adnexa Procedures for Malignancy” and “Uterine and Adnexa Procedures for Non-Malignancy”.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
