ICD-10-PCS 0LP Medical and Surgical: Tendons Removal

The ICD-10-PCS root operation Removal (code 0LP) refers to taking out a device, tissue, or foreign body from a body part. In the Medical and Surgical section, this operation specifically applies to the extraction of substances or devices from tendons.

This root operation includes removal of various implanted materials such as drainage devices, autologous tissue substitutes, synthetic substitutes, and nonautologous tissue substitutes. The procedure can be performed on either the upper tendon or lower tendon using different approaches: Open, Percutaneous, Percutaneous Endoscopic, or External. For example, code 0LPX00Z denotes removal of a drainage device from an upper tendon by an open approach, while 0LPY3JZ describes removal of a synthetic substitute from a lower tendon percutaneously. These detailed codes enable accurate documentation of tendon-related extractions, essential for clinical clarity and billing.
