ICD-10-PCS 0TN Medical and Surgical: Urinary System Release

The ICD-10-PCS root operation Release (code range starting with 0TN) refers to freeing a body part from an abnormal physical constraint by cutting or otherwise disrupting the restrictive material. This operation is used in the Medical and Surgical section, specifically involving the Urinary System.

Within this body system, the release procedure applies to various urinary tract structures such as the Right and Left Kidneys, their Pelvis, the Ureters, and the Bladder including the Bladder Neck and Urethra. The codes specify different procedural approaches, such as Open, Percutaneous, Percutaneous Endoscopic, and approaches Via Natural or Artificial Openings with or without endoscopy. For example, 0TN00ZZ describes an open release of the right kidney, whereas 0TN68ZZ indicates releasing the right ureter endoscopically through a natural or artificial opening. These detailed codes help medical coders accurately document procedures aimed at alleviating restrictions affecting urinary system function.
