ICD-10-PCS 0N5 Medical and Surgical: Head and Facial Bones Destruction
The ICD-10-PCS root operation Destruction (0N5) involves the deliberate use of energy, such as laser or radiofrequency, to eradicate targeted tissue. Within the Medical and Surgical section, this operation is specifically applied to the Head and Facial Bones.
This classification encompasses the destruction of various bones of the skull and face, such as the Skull (0N500ZZ
), Frontal Bone (0N510ZZ
), and Mandible (0N5T0ZZ
). The procedure can be performed via different Approaches: Open, Percutaneous, and Percutaneous Endoscopic, offering flexibility depending on clinical needs. For example, Destruction of the Right Parietal Bone may be coded as 0N530ZZ
for an open approach or 0N533ZZ
for a percutaneous approach. These codes ensure precise documentation of the targeted bone and method, which is critical for accurate procedural reporting in ICD-10-PCS.
List of ICD-10-PCS codes used to specify 0N5 - 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 70 procedure codes in this section.
