ICD-9-CM procedure code (retired)
46.76 — Closure of fistula of large intestine
About ICD-9-CM 46.76
46.76 is an ICD-9-CM procedure code for closure of fistula of large intestine. ICD-9-CM was retired for U.S. claims on October 1, 2015, when ICD-10-PCS took over.
The CMS General Equivalence Mappings translate it to 21 ICD-10-PCS codes, such as 0DQE0ZZ (Repair Large Intestine, Open Approach), 0DQE3ZZ (Repair Large Intestine, Percutaneous Approach) and 0DQE4ZZ (Repair Large Intestine, Percutaneous Endoscopic Approach). All of these are approximate matches, so review the record to pick the right one. Some mappings are combinations: more than one ICD-10 code is needed to fully express the ICD-9 code.
