Summary. 43246 is probably the most appropriate code if you are looking for a true percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy(PEG) tube.
Inspection of Upper Intestinal Tract, Via Natural or Artificial Opening Endoscopic. ICD-10-PCS 0DJ08ZZ is a specific/billable code that can be used to indicate a procedure.
0DJW0ZZICD-10-PCS 0DJW0ZZ converts approximately to: 2015 ICD-9-CM Procedure 54.11 Exploratory laparotomy.
EGD with Biopsy of Antrum: 0DB78ZX.
Indexing ERCP directs the coder to 51.10, Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP).
Rationale. The root operation is Excision.
Exploratory laparotomy is an abdominal surgery that doctors sometimes use to diagnose abdominal issues. It is usually recommended when other testing did not diagnose or fully resolve an issue. Reasons to perform this surgery include: Abdominal trauma (for example, from an accident) Unexplained bleeding.

A laparotomy is a surgical incision (cut) into the abdominal cavity. This operation is performed to examine the abdominal organs and aid diagnosis of any problems, including abdominal pain. In many cases, the problem – once identified – can be fixed during the laparotomy. In other cases, a second operation is required.
An upper endoscopy is a procedure to examine the upper part of the digestive tract. The procedure is also called an esophagogastroduodenoscopy, or EGD. A gastrointestinal (GI) doctor (gastroenterologist) uses an endoscope. The scope is a narrow, flexible tube with a light and small video camera.
EGD is an endoscopic procedure that allows your doctor to examine your esophagus, stomach and duodenum (part of your small intestine). EGD is an outpatient procedure, meaning you can go home that same day.
