About 0VW843Z

0VW843Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a revision procedure on the scrotum and tunica vaginalis using a percutaneous endoscopic approach with infusion 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 incision and drainage of scrotum and tunica vaginalis, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (61.0).

For a different body part, codes include 0VW443Z (prostate and seminal vesicles), 0VWD43Z (testis), 0VWM43Z (epididymis and spermatic cord), 0VWR43Z (vas deferens) and 0VWS43Z (penis).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0VW803Z (open), 0VW833Z (percutaneous), 0VW873Z (via natural or artificial opening), 0VW883Z (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic) and 0VW8X3Z (external).

With a different device, use 0VW840Z (drainage device), 0VW847Z (autologous tissue substitute), 0VW84JZ (synthetic substitute), 0VW84KZ (nonautologous tissue substitute) and 0VW84YZ (other device).

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.
