ICD-10-PCS 0KC Medical and Surgical: Muscles Extirpation

The ICD-10-PCS root operation Extirpation (code 0KC) refers to the removal of solid matter or a clot from a muscle without removing the muscle itself. This operation is classified under the Medical and Surgical section and specifically targets muscles as the body part.

Examples of this operation include extirpation of matter from various muscle groups using different approaches. For instance, the removal can be performed via an Open Approach on the Head Muscle (code 0KC00ZZ), or through minimally invasive methods such as Percutaneous or Percutaneous Endoscopic Approaches (codes 0KC03ZZ, 0KC04ZZ) for the same muscle group. Similar procedures target muscles of the Facial, Neck, Shoulder, Upper Arm, Trunk, Hip, Leg, and Foot regions with specific codes denoting side and approach, allowing accurate documentation of extirpation performed on defined muscle sites. These codes reflect the precision needed in ICD-10-PCS muscle extirpation coding to capture the site and method of matter removal effectively.
