ICD-10-PCS 0UV Medical and Surgical: Female Reproductive System Restriction
The Restriction root operation in the ICD-10-PCS system, represented by the code 0UV, involves partially closing or narrowing an orifice or lumen of the Female Reproductive System. This procedure reduces the flow of substances through the targeted body part, rather than completely obstructing it.
This operation is commonly applied to the Cervix, as illustrated by the included codes. For instance, restriction can be performed with or without devices, such as an Extraluminal Device placed outside the lumen or an Intraluminal Device located inside the lumen. The procedure may be done through several approaches: Open Approach (codes like 0UVC0CZ), Percutaneous (e.g., 0UVC3DZ), Percutaneous Endoscopic (0UVC4DZ), or via a Natural or Artificial Opening (0UVC7DZ). Some codes specify an endoscopic approach through these openings as well. Accurate use of these restriction codes ensures clear documentation when narrowing the cervix to control flow or access.
