ICD-10-PCS 0LC Medical and Surgical: Tendons Extirpation
The ICD-10-PCS root operation Extirpation (code root 0LC) refers to the removal of solid matter, such as a clot or foreign body, from a tendon. This procedure specifically targets matter within the tendon without removing the tendon itself.
Within the Medical and Surgical section, extirpation is applied to various tendons throughout the body, including the head and neck, shoulders, upper and lower arms, hands, trunk, thorax, abdomen, perineum, hips, upper and lower legs, knees, ankles, and feet. The procedure can be performed through multiple approaches, such as Open, Percutaneous, and Percutaneous Endoscopic, allowing for different levels of invasiveness depending on clinical needs. For example, code 0LC10ZZ represents extirpation from the right shoulder tendon via an open approach, while code 0LC43ZZ involves a percutaneous method targeting the left upper arm tendon. These ICD-10-PCS extirpation codes enable precise documentation of matter removal from tendons across multiple body regions, enhancing accuracy in reporting and treatment planning.
