ICD-10-PCS 0T8 Medical and Surgical: Urinary System Division

The ICD-10-PCS root operation Division (Character 0T8) involves cutting into a body part without fully removing or detaching it. In the Medical and Surgical section, this operation is applied within the Urinary System to separate or cut through specific anatomical structures.

Examples of this operation include the Division of the Bilateral Kidneys, which can be performed by an Open Approach (code 0T820ZZ), a Percutaneous Approach (code 0T823ZZ), or a Percutaneous Endoscopic Approach (code 0T824ZZ). Similarly, the Division of the Bladder Neck is documented with codes specifying the approach used, ranging from Open (code 0T8C0ZZ) to less invasive methods like Percutaneous (code 0T8C3ZZ) and Percutaneous Endoscopic approaches (code 0T8C4ZZ). These ICD-10-PCS division codes enable precise recording of procedures that involve cutting but not removing parts of the urinary system for therapeutic or diagnostic purposes.
