55.82 — Closure of nephrostomy and pyelostomy
About ICD-9-CM 55.82
55.82 is an ICD-9-CM procedure code for closure of nephrostomy and pyelostomy. 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 16 ICD-10-PCS codes, such as 0TQ00ZZ (Repair Right Kidney, Open Approach), 0TQ03ZZ (Repair Right Kidney, Percutaneous Approach) and 0TQ04ZZ (Repair Right Kidney, 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.
