With those definitions in mind, here are the three code choices for closure of an enterostomy: CPT 44620: Closure of enterostomy, large or small intestine; CPT 44625: Closure of enterostomy, large or small intestine; with resection and anastomosis (other than colorectal)
For CPT 44625, the anastomosis performed is any anastomosis other than colorectal. So in this procedure, you may see various parts of the intestine reconnected such as ileum to ileum, ileum to remaining colon, colon to colon, etc.
0DBB0ZZ' Assign the following ICD-10-PCS codes: 0DBB0ZZ Excision of ileum, open approach (for the ileostomy takedown); 0WQF0ZZ Repair abdominal wall, open approach (for parastomal hernia repair and stoma closure.)
Z93.2ICD-10 code Z93. 2 for Ileostomy status is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Factors influencing health status and contact with health services .
A stoma reversal is surgery to attach your bowel together after a colostomy or ileostomy (also called ostomies). During ostomy surgery, the bowel was separated and attached to an opening made in the skin of your belly. The opening is called a stoma. Stool passes through the stoma and out of your body.
ExcisionOstomy Procedures – Ileostomy “takedown”: 0DBB0ZZ, Excision ileum, open • CC, Third Quarter 2016 states: The root operation for ileostomy takedown is "Excision," because part of the ileum is removed. The anastomosis is considered inherent to the surgery and not coded separately.

Rather, the ileostomy was moved to a new site, which is most appropriately coded as CPT code 44310 (Ileostomy or jejunostomy, non-tube).
Procedure. Now that your child no longer needs the ostomy, it can be closed or “taken down.” The part of your child's intestine that was brought to the outside of his/her belly will be put back inside. It will be connected as one whole tract.
Permanent Ileostomy In the standard or Brooke ileostomy (also known as an end ileostomy), surgeons pull the ileum up and through an incision in the abdomen. Then they turn the ileum inside out and suture it to the abdomen to create a stoma. Waste coming through the stoma is deposited into an external pouch.
Encounter for attention to colostomy Z43. 3 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM Z43. 3 became effective on October 1, 2021.

There are two types of ileostomy - an end or a loop. In an end ileostomy, the colon and rectum may be removed or need to be rested to heal and the end of the ileum is bought out through the stoma. In a loop ileostomy, a loop of the small bowel is bought out through the abdomen and cut before being sutured down.
Closure without a resection is 44620; closure with a resection and anastomosis is either 44626 [if anast of colon to rectum] or 44625 [if anast is anything else]. Those are all for open procedures. There is also a laparoscopic code for any closure that has a resection & anast, which is 44227.
We can confirm the definition of enterostomy by breaking the word down into its parts: entero- means “of or pertaining to the intestine” (this could refer to either the small or the large intestine) while -ostomy means “an artificial opening between two structures.”. So when we put these word parts together we have “an artificial opening between ...
If you work for a surgeon specializing in colorectal procedures, chances are you have seen your fair share of ostomy takedown procedures. When you first start checking CPT for a code for a “takedown,” though, you may find yourself coming up empty. The reason for this is that surgeons use the term takedown in their operative reports while CPT uses the word “closure” in the codes that cover this procedure. Both terms really have the same meaning, but until you know about the difference in language you may see in reports verses what you will see in the CPT manual, the whole thing can be pretty confusing. So let’s breakdown the terminology and codes for an “ostomy takedown” and see how that looks in CPT so you can quickly choose the correct code.
That’s why closing the ostomy created during a Hartmann’s procedure would typically fall under CPT 44626.
So in this procedure, you may see various parts of the intestine reconnected such as ileum to ileum, ileum to remaining colon, colon to colon, etc. If two structures other than the colon and the rectum are reconnected after removing part of the intestine and closing the ostomy site on the abdominal wall, it’s a 44625.
