ICD-10-PCS Body System: ICD-10-PCS Body System 0M - Bursae and Ligaments

The ICD-10-PCS root operations related to Bursae and Ligaments encompass a wide range of procedures involving the manipulation, treatment, or examination of these connective tissues within the Medical and Surgical section. These operations are coded with prefixes starting with 0M, signifying the body system focus.

These root operations include techniques such as Change (code 0M2), where a device is replaced without cutting the skin or mucous membrane, and Insertion (code 0MH), which refers to placing a non-biological appliance that aids or monitors function. Procedures like Division (0M8), involve cutting into bursae or ligaments to separate tissue without fluid drainage, while Destruction (0M5) entails eradication of tissue using energy or force. Other examples include Drainage (0M9) to remove fluid, Repair (0MQ) to restore anatomy and function, and Replacement (0MR) where synthetic or biological materials substitute part of the body. This breadth of codes allows accurate documentation of various surgical interventions targeting bursae and ligaments.
