About 0VQ74ZZ

0VQ74ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a repair procedure on the left tunica vaginalis 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 suture of laceration of scrotum and tunica vaginalis, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (61.41).

For a different body part, codes include 0VQ04ZZ (prostate), 0VQ14ZZ (right seminal vesicle), 0VQ24ZZ (left seminal vesicle), 0VQ34ZZ (bilateral seminal vesicles), 0VQ54ZZ (scrotum), 0VQ64ZZ (right tunica vaginalis) and 14 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0VQ70ZZ (open) and 0VQ73ZZ (percutaneous).

It doesn't appear in the MS-DRG procedure index, so on its own it doesn't change the DRG assignment.

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