ICD-10-PCS Body System: ICD-10-PCS Body System XV - Male Reproductive System
The ICD-10-PCS root operation Destruction (coded as XV5 in this context) involves the physical eradication of all or part of a body part using energy, force, or a destructive agent. This operation is classified under the New Technology section for the Male Reproductive System.
The Destruction root operation signifies procedures that intentionally eliminate tissue without removing it surgically. For the male reproductive system, this means targeting tissue directly with methods such as thermal, chemical, or mechanical means to destroy abnormal or diseased areas. By providing a specific code like XV5, ICD-10-PCS ensures precise documentation of this action in emerging technologies used within this body system. Accurate use of Destruction codes facilitates clear communication regarding the method and intent during male reproductive interventions.
