ICD-10-PCS 0HB Medical and Surgical: Skin and Breast Excision

The ICD-10-PCS root operation Excision (code 0HB) refers to cutting out or off a portion of a body part, specifically within the Medical and Surgical section targeting the Skin and Breast body system. It involves removal of part, but not all, of these tissues.

This root operation includes a wide range of examples depending on the specific body part and approach used. Commonly, Excision codes describe removal of skin from areas such as the scalp (e.g., 0HB0XZZ for external approach), face, ears, neck, chest, and extremities like the arms and legs. It also covers removal of specific structures like finger or toe nails. The procedure can be performed via various approaches, including external, open, percutaneous, or natural/artificial openings, sometimes with endoscopic assistance. For example, excision of the right breast can be coded as 0HBT0ZZ (open approach) or 0HBT3ZZ (percutaneous approach). Some codes designate diagnostic intent by suffixes, denoting excision performed to obtain a tissue sample.
