ICD-10-PCS 0MC Medical and Surgical: Bursae and Ligaments Extirpation
The ICD-10-PCS root operation Extirpation (code 0MC) refers to the removal of solid matter, such as a foreign body or a thrombus, from a body part without removing the body part itself. This procedure is commonly applied to bursae and ligaments in various anatomical locations in the Medical and Surgical section.
Extirpation of matter may be performed via different approaches, including Open, Percutaneous, and Percutaneous Endoscopic. For example, codes like 0MC00ZZ denote extirpation from the Head and Neck Bursa and Ligament using an open approach, while 0MC13ZZ represents a percutaneous extirpation removing matter from the Right Shoulder. The coding system provides extensive specificity, covering numerous body parts from the Upper Extremities (e.g., Right Wrist 0MC50ZZ) to the Lower Spine 0MCD0ZZ, and allows precise documentation of the exact site and technique employed. Proper coding of these procedures ensures clear communication regarding the removal of obstructive matter without excising the entire bursa or ligament.
