ICD-10-PCS 0QC Medical and Surgical: Lower Bones Extirpation

The ICD-10-PCS root operation Extirpation (code category 0QC) involves the removal of solid matter from a body part. In the Medical and Surgical section focused on Lower Bones, extirpation procedures are performed to extract unwanted material such as bone fragments or pathological deposits from specific bone structures.

This root operation includes various approaches to remove matter from bones such as the Lumbar Vertebra, Sacrum, Pelvic Bone, and different parts of the Femur, as well as bones of the lower leg and foot like the Tibia, Fibula, Tarsal, and Metatarsal. For example, code 0QC00ZZ designates extirpation from the lumbar vertebra using an Open Approach, while code 0QC04ZZ denotes the same procedure performed via a Percutaneous Endoscopic Approach. The range of codes highlights how matter is removed from specific lower bone sites by open or minimally invasive methods, ensuring precise procedural documentation and effective communication among healthcare professionals.
