About the 0TN Code Range

These procedures free a kidney, kidney pelvis, ureter, bladder, bladder neck or urethra from an abnormal physical constraint. Cutting or force may remove restraining tissue, but none of the body part being freed is removed.

The fourth character identifies the body part and distinguishes right from left for the kidney, kidney pelvis and ureter. The fifth character distinguishes open access, a puncture or small incision, entry through an opening, and an external approach. Some approaches use a scope. The sixth character is No Device, and the seventh is No Qualifier.

Nephrolysis, ureterolysis and urethrolysis name release of the kidney, ureter and urethra, respectively.
