ICD-10-PCS 10D Obstetrics: Pregnancy Extraction
The ICD-10-PCS root operation Extraction (character 10D) in the Obstetrics section refers to the removal, without replacement, of a product of conception from the body. This includes various methods and approaches designed to safely extract fetal tissue or retained products during pregnancy-related procedures.
Extraction codes in obstetrics specify the exact location and approach used. For example, an Open Approach may be used to extract products of conception from the High or Low uterus, such as 10D00Z0 and 10D00Z1. Specialized forceps or vacuum devices applied via a Natural or Artificial Opening are also coded distinctly, like 10D07Z3 for low forceps extraction or 10D07Z6 for vacuum extraction. Additionally, codes cover Manual Extraction of retained products, both via open and endoscopic methods (e.g., 10D17Z9, 10D18ZZ), and extraction of Ectopic products of conception through multiple approaches.
Understanding these codes supports precise documentation of obstetric procedures involving removal of conception products to ensure clinical accuracy and proper billing.
