About 0VQ34ZZ
0VQ34ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a repair procedure on the bilateral seminal vesicles using a percutaneous 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 operations on seminal vesicles, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (60.79).
For a different body part, codes include 0VQ04ZZ (prostate), 0VQ14ZZ (right seminal vesicle), 0VQ24ZZ (left seminal vesicle), 0VQ54ZZ (scrotum), 0VQ64ZZ (right tunica vaginalis), 0VQ74ZZ (left tunica vaginalis) and 14 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0VQ30ZZ (open) and 0VQ33ZZ (percutaneous).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 715 (Male Reproductive System and Other O.R. Procedures for Malignancy with CC/MCC), DRG 716 (Male Reproductive System and Other O.R. Procedures for Malignancy without CC/MCC), DRG 717 (Other Male Reproductive System O.R. Procedures with CC/MCC) and DRG 718 (Other Male Reproductive System O.R. Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “” and “Other Male Reproductive System O.R. Procedures”.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
