ICD-10-PCS 0L5 Medical and Surgical: Tendons Destruction

The ICD-10-PCS root operation Destruction (code beginning with 0L5) refers to the deliberate eradication of all or part of a tendon without removing it. This procedure is categorized under the Medical and Surgical section and involves permanently eliminating diseased or dysfunctional tendon tissue.

This operation is applied to various tendons in the head and neck, shoulders, upper and lower arms, hands, trunk, thorax, abdomen, perineum, hips, legs, knees, ankles, and feet. Approaches include the Open Approach (e.g., 0L510ZZ for destruction of right shoulder tendon), Percutaneous Approach (e.g., 0L513ZZ), and Percutaneous Endoscopic Approach (e.g., 0L514ZZ). The specific combinations of body part and approach codes allow precise documentation of the site and method used during tendon destruction. Accurate use of these ICD-10-PCS destruction codes ensures clear records of procedures aimed at resolving tendon-related conditions by eliminating targeted tissue.

List of ICD-10-PCS codes used to specify 0L5 - 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 85 procedure codes in this section.
