ICD-10-PCS Body System: ICD-10-PCS Body System 07 - Lymphatic and Hemic Systems

The ICD-10-PCS Lymphatic and Hemic Systems section (07) includes a variety of root operations that describe distinct procedural intents. These root operations capture surgical and non-surgical methods related to treatment, management, or examination of lymphatic and blood-forming body parts.

Procedures such as Change (072) involve removing and replacing a device without cutting the skin, while Destruction (075) refers to physically eradicating tissue using energy or force. The Drainage (079) operation is about removing fluids or gases, contrasting with Excision (07B) which involves cutting out a portion of a body part without replacement. Removing solid matter is classified as Extirpation (07C), and Extraction (07D) involves forcefully pulling out all or part of a body part.

Additional root operations include Insertion (07H) for placing non-biological devices, Inspection (07J) which is visual or manual exploration, and Occlusion (07L) for completely closing a lumen. Surgical corrections like Repair (07Q), Resection (07T), and Transplantation (07Y) are also part of this body system's coding structure. These root operations provide precise descriptions essential for accurate ICD-10-PCS coding in procedures involving the lymphatic and hemic systems.
