ICD-10-PCS 0J5 Medical and Surgical: Subcutaneous Tissue and Fascia Destruction

The ICD-10-PCS root operation Destruction (code 0J5) refers to the deliberate use of energy, force, or chemical agents to eliminate targeted tissue. In the Medical and Surgical section, this operation commonly applies to the removal of abnormal or diseased Subcutaneous Tissue and Fascia across various body regions.

This operation is carried out through different approaches, such as an Open Approach or a minimally invasive Percutaneous Approach. For example, code 0J500ZZ denotes destruction of the Scalp Subcutaneous Tissue and Fascia using an open technique, while 0J503ZZ specifies destruction of the same tissue by percutaneous means. Other body sites included are the Face, Neck (right and left), Chest, Back, Abdomen, and extremities such as the Upper and Lower Arms or Legs. Accurate use of these ICD-10-PCS destruction codes supports precise documentation of therapeutic tissue ablation targeting subcutaneous structures in diverse anatomical locations.

List of ICD-10-PCS codes used to specify 0J5 - Destruction (physical eradication of all or a portion of a body part by the direct use of energy, force or a destructive agent). There are a total of 45 procedure codes in this section.
