ICD-10-PCS 0LB Medical and Surgical: Tendons Excision
The ICD-10-PCS root operation Excision under the Medical and Surgical section involves cutting out or off a portion of a body part. In this context, the operation specifically addresses excision of tendons in various anatomical locations.
The codes demonstrate excision procedures performed on tendons of the head and neck, shoulder, upper and lower arms, hand, trunk, thorax, abdomen, perineum, hip, upper and lower legs, knee, ankle, and foot. These procedures may be done via different approaches: open, percutaneous, or percutaneous endoscopic. Some codes also indicate a diagnostic purpose to assess the tissue while performing excision. For example, excision of the right shoulder tendon is coded as 0LB10ZZ (open approach) or 0LB13ZX (percutaneous, diagnostic). Proper application of these ICD-10-PCS excision codes is essential for accurately documenting partial removal of tendons during surgical interventions.
