The following Surgical Procedure of Primary Site codes are used when the site is pituitary gland (C75.1), craniopharyngeal duct (C75.2), or pineal gland (C75.3). They are the surgery codes used for all other sites.
CNS sites included in brain related sites fall under 2 separate surgery schemes. BRAIN and ALL Others. The Brain codes include the brain and spinal cord as well as the meninges. The Other Sites include the pitutitary and pineal glands & the craniopharyngeal duct.
Standard Treatment. Generally the treatment of choice is surgery unless the tumor is in an inaccessible or delicate area, such as in speech, vision, or motor control area. Some tumors are so aggressive that they also need radiation therapy. S = Surgery. R = Radiation therapy. C = Chemotherapy.
The ICD-10 Procedure Coding System (ICD-10-PCS) is a catalog of procedural codes used by medical professionals for hospital inpatient healthcare settings. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) maintain the catalog in the U.S. releasing yearly updates. These 2022 ICD-10-PCS codes are to be used for discharges occurring from October 1, 2021 through September 30, 2022.
00B73ZX is a billable procedure code used to specify the performance of excision of cerebral hemisphere, percutaneous approach, diagnostic. The code is valid for the year 2021 for the submission of HIPAA-covered transactions.
Each ICD-10-PCS code has a structure of seven alphanumeric characters and contains no decimals . The first character defines the major "section". Depending on the "section" the second through seventh characters mean different things.
One significant change in the guidelines from ICD-9 to ICD-10 is the sequencing of anemia associated with malignancy, chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and radiation therapy.
The neoplasm table is used to identify the correct category, subcategory, or code, and the tabular list is referenced for any additional guidelines and/or coding instructions. The neoplasm table is no longer located in the alphabetic index under the "Ns".
Our new guidelines tell us when the admission/encounter is for management of an anemia associated with the malignancy, and the treatment is only for anemia, the malignancy code is sequenced as the principal or first-listed diagnosis, followed by the appropriate anemia code (such as code D63.0, Anemia in neoplastic disease).
Symptoms of brain tumors include: Headaches that may be severe or worsen with activity. Seizures. Personality or memory changes. Nausea or vomiting.
Brain tumors occur when cells in the brain grow abnormally, creating what are known as primary brain tumors, or when cancers from other parts of the body spread to the brain, known as metastatic brain tumors .
In the news this week was a sad occurrence: Beau Biden, son of Vice President Joe Biden, died after a tough battle with brain cancer. He was just 46 years old. According to the National Cancer Institute, brain cancer represents only 1.4 percent of all new cancer cases in the United States. Brain tumors occur in both children and adults. After leukemia, brain cancer is the second most common form of cancer diagnosed in childhood. However, over 50 percent of the people diagnosed with brain cancer between 2008 and 2012 were between the ages of 45-74.

Analyzed on a per-patient basis, the median annual number of craniotomies performed for metastases was 7 per hospital (range, 1–96 admissions; 25th percentile: 4 admissions, 75th percentile: 14 admissions) or 3 per surgeon (range, 1–33 admissions; 25th percentile: 2 admissions, 75th percentile: 5 admissions). For 744 patients (5%), no other craniotomy for the resection of brain metastases was reported during that year at their hospital, and for 1599 patients (23%;), no other craniotomy for the resection of brain metastases was reported that year by their surgeon.
Patient characteristics were tested as potential predictors of hospital or surgeon caseload. Older patients were found to have lower-caseload hospitals and surgeons ( P < 0.001 for both). White patients appeared to have higher-caseload surgeons compared with black patients ( P = 0.04), but there was no significant difference with regard to hospital caseloads between the two groups. The primary payer for care was a significant predictor of both hospital and surgeon caseload ( P < 0.001 for both); patients with private insurance tended to have higher-caseload hospitals and surgeons than those with other primary payers. Patients from higher-income areas of residence had higher-volume hospitals and surgeons ( P < 0.001 for both). Emergency or urgent admissions were more common to lower-volume hospitals and surgeons ( P < 0.001 for both). Patients with more medical comorbidities tended to have lower-volume hospitals and surgeons ( P < 0.001 for both). Patients with lung carcinoma metastases and patients with other known metastases appeared to have lower-volume hospitals and surgeons ( P < 0.002 for all).
One change in neurosurgical practice that could have affected the results of the current study was the increasing use during the study period of radiosurgery to treat cerebral metastases. 17 If higher-risk patients were increasingly referred for radiosurgery rather than open resection, mortality rates for surgery would be expected to decrease with time. In addition, some of the difference reported with regard to outcome between high-volume and low-volume centers could have resulted from the selection of the highest-risk patients for radiosurgery treatment, rather than surgical resection, at large-volume centers. However, a comparison between patients in the current study who were treated with surgery between 1995–2000 and 1461 others contained in the NIS who were treated with radiosurgery during the same period suggested that patients treated with radiosurgery were a lower-risk population compared with those treated with surgery. Specifically, patients treated with radiosurgery were younger and had more frequent elective admissions, lower rates of hemiplegia (excluding patients with complications of surgery), fewer medical comorbidities, and similar rates of other coded metastatic disease (unpublished data). The general similarity in risk profile between patients with brain metastases who were treated using surgery and those treated with radiosurgery has been confirmed by several single-institution studies. 18 - 22 This suggests that the increasing use of radiosurgery does not explain the decrease in surgical mortality noted over the study period. Similarly, unless a higher proportion of low-risk patients are referred for radiosurgery from low-volume institutions than from high-volume institutions (which are more likely to have radiosurgical treatment facilities), the increasing use of radiosurgery does not explain the volume-outcome effect observed in the current study.
To assess the effect of general medical comorbidity, the set of 30 medical comorbidity markers described by Elixhauser et al., 8 excluding the 2 specific neurologic comorbidity variables (“paralysis” and “other neurological deficit”), and 3 comorbidity variables likely to represent postoperative conditions (“fluid and electrolyte disorders,” “blood loss anemia,” and “deficiency anemias”) were calculated using AHRQ software (available from URL: www.ahcpr.gov/data/hcup/comorbid.htm [12/22/03]) and summed to give a single comorbidity score ranging between 0–25.
The current analysis will describe the results of craniotomy for resection of metastatic brain tumors performed between 1988–2000 in a representative sample of nonfederal hospitals in the U.S. The mortality rate for the resection of brain metastases was examined for its relation with provider caseload and changes over time.
An admission for craniotomy for the resection of an adult metastatic brain tumor was defined as follows: patient age ≥ 19 years, a primary International Classification of Diseases–Clinical Modification (9th revision) (ICD-9-CM) diagnosis code of 198.3 (secondary malignant neoplasm of brain or spinal cord), and a primary ICD-9-CM procedure code of 01.59 (excision or destruction of tissue or lesion of brain).
To assist in selecting treatment for patients with brain metastases, the current study assessed the risk of adverse outcomes after contemporary resection of metastatic brain tumors in relation to patient, surgeon, and hospital characteristics, with particular attention to the volume of care and trends in outcomes.
