ICD-10-PCS 0GN Medical and Surgical: Endocrine System Release

The ICD-10-PCS root operation Release (code 0GN) refers to freeing a body part from abnormal constriction. This operation is specific to the Endocrine System in the Medical and Surgical section, focusing on restoring normal function by relieving pressure or restriction on endocrine structures.

The provided codes illustrate how the Release operation is performed on various endocrine glands and bodies. For example, the Pituitary Gland can be released through an Open Approach (code 0GN00ZZ) or percutaneous methods such as Percutaneous Endoscopic Approach (code 0GN04ZZ). Similarly, Left Adrenal Gland release is coded as 0GN20ZZ for open surgery or 0GN24ZZ for percutaneous endoscopic release. Other body parts include both Carotid Bodies and Parathyroid Glands, highlighting the operation's adaptability to different anatomical targets and surgical techniques. These detailed codes allow precise documentation of procedures aimed at freeing endocrinal structures to improve patient outcomes.
