ICD-10-PCS 015 Medical and Surgical: Peripheral Nervous System Destruction
The ICD-10-PCS root operation Destruction (code 015) involves physically eradicating all or a portion of a body part through methods such as incision, energy application, or chemicals. In the Medical and Surgical section, this operation is specific to the Peripheral Nervous System, targeting nerves and plexuses.
This Destruction operation includes a variety of procedures affecting nerves like the Cervical Plexus, Phrenic Nerve, Brachial Plexus, and Sciatic Nerve. The codes differentiate between approaches such as Open, Percutaneous, and Percutaneous Endoscopic, reflecting different surgical techniques. For example, 01500ZZ denotes open destruction of the Cervical Plexus, while 01533ZZ specifies percutaneous destruction of the Brachial Plexus. Likewise, destruction of the Thoracic Sympathetic Nerve is coded as 01584ZZ using a percutaneous endoscopic approach. These detailed codes enable precise documentation of nerve destruction procedures within the peripheral nervous system relevant to ICD-10-PCS practice.
