ICD-10-PCS 0WY Medical and Surgical: Anatomical Regions, General Transplantation
The ICD-10-PCS root operation Transplantation (code 0WY) refers to the procedure of replacing all or part of a body part with allogeneic or autologous tissue from a donor. This operation is classified under the Medical and Surgical section and involves transferring functional tissue to restore normal function.
Within this classification, the Transplantation operation can involve complex anatomical regions such as the Face. Examples include the Transplantation of the Face, Allogeneic, Open Approach (ICD-10-PCS code 0WY20Z0), where tissue is donated from a genetically different individual, and the Syngeneic Face Transplantation, Open Approach (code 0WY20Z1), where the tissue comes from a genetically identical donor. These codes emphasize the procedural aspects and donor type, ensuring precise documentation of transplant surgeries within general anatomical regions.
