ICD-10-PCS 0CR Medical and Surgical: Mouth and Throat Replacement

The ICD-10-PCS root operation Replacement (code 0CR) refers to the procedure of taking out a body part and putting in a substitute, which may be synthetic or tissue-based. In the Medical and Surgical section, these codes apply to the Mouth and Throat body system for restoring or reconstructing anatomical structures.

This operation covers replacement of various mouth and throat parts such as the Upper and Lower Lip, Hard and Soft Palate, Tongue, Pharynx, and specific structures like the Parotid Ducts, Uvula, and Vocal Cords. The replacement can be performed using different types of substitutes—Autologous Tissue (from the patient), Synthetic, or Nonautologous Tissue—and by various approaches including Open, Percutaneous, External, or via Natural or Artificial Openings. For example, code 0CR00JZ indicates an open approach replacement of the upper lip with a synthetic substitute, while 0CRM77Z refers to replacement of the pharynx with autologous tissue via a natural or artificial opening. These detailed codes enable precise documentation of complex reconstructive procedures within the mouth and throat, critical for accurate clinical coding and treatment planning.
