ICD-10-PCS 0BF Medical and Surgical: Respiratory System Fragmentation

The ICD-10-PCS root operation Fragmentation (code 0BF) refers to breaking a body part into pieces without removing it. This operation is classified under the Medical and Surgical section and is focused here on the Respiratory System.

Fragmentation is typically performed to treat conditions where breaking up tissues or obstructive material inside the respiratory structures is necessary. The included codes specify this operation applied to various parts of the respiratory tract, such as the Trachea, Carina, and multiple levels of the Bronchi (right main, upper lobe, middle lobe, lower lobe; left main, upper lobe, lingula, lower lobe). The procedure can be done through multiple approaches including Open, Percutaneous, Percutaneous Endoscopic, Via Natural or Artificial Opening, and External approaches, with or without endoscopic assistance. For example, code 0BF14ZZ describes fragmentation in the trachea via a percutaneous endoscopic approach, while 0BF90ZZ refers to fragmentation in the lingula bronchus through an open approach. These codes enable specific documentation of fragmentation procedures in different respiratory sites and access routes.
