Assign the following ICD-10-PCS codes: 02PY33Z Removal of infusion device from great vessel, percutaneous approach, for removal of the infusion portion of the catheter 0JPT0XZ Removal of vascular access device from trunk subcutaneous tissue and fascia, open approach, for removal of the port
Code the insertion, as well as the removal of both the infusion device and the vascular access device. Assign the following ICD-10-PCS codes: 02PY33Z Removal of infusion device from great vessel, percutaneous approach, for removal of the infusion portion of the catheter
ICD-10-PCS codes: 09SM0ZZ, 09BL0ZZ Rationale: The root operation Reposition is used to code the reposition of the deviated septum. Although cartilage is removed on each side of the septum, the intent of the procedure is to bring the septum back into the midline. Therefore, the root operation Reposition is coded.
This would be reported with ICD-10-PCS code 0J990ZZ (Drainage of buttock subcutaneous tissue and fascia, open approach).
Indexing ERCP directs the coder to 51.10, Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP).
ICD-10-PCS Code GZB2ZZZ - Electroconvulsive Therapy, Bilateral-Single Seizure - Codify by AAPC.
Resection is similar to excision except it involves cutting out or off, without replacement, all of a body part. Resection includes all of a body part or any subdivision of a body part having its own body part value in ICD-10-PCS, while excision includes only a portion of a body part.
ICD-10-CM Code for Personal history of retained foreign body fully removed Z87. 821.
CPT code 43264: Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP); with removal of calculi/debris from biliary/pancreatic duct(s).

Surgical excision removes the entire cyst but requires a larger hole in the skin. A punch incision makes a smaller hole through which the cyst can be removed. The trial's purpose is to determine if one method is better than another in terms of recurrence, infection, or other side effects.
What are incisional and excisional biopsies? An incisional biopsy is a medical test to remove a piece of tissue from a lesion or mass. The tissue is then tested to find out what it is. An excisional biopsy is a medical test in which the whole lesion or mass is removed and tested.
A surgical excision, also known as shave excision of a skin lesion, is a skin cancer treatment that surgically removes malignant moles, lesions and tumors from the skin along with a healthy margin around the tumor. Surgical excisions can be performed to treat basal and squamous cell carcinomas as well as melanomas.
The following crosswalk between ICD-10-PCS to ICD-9-PCS is based based on the General Equivalence Mappings (GEMS) information:
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.

Question: When coding the placement of an infusion device such as a peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC line), the code assignment for the body part is based on the site in which the device ended up (end placement). For coding purposes, can imaging reports be used to determine the end placement of the device?
Question: ...venous access port. An incision was made in the anterior chest wall and a subcutaneous pocket was created. The catheter was advanced into the vein, tunneled under the skin and attached to the port, which was anchored in the subcutaneous pocket. The incision was closed in layers.
Question: In Coding Clinic, Fourth Quarter 2013, pages 116- 117, information was published about the device character for the insertion of a totally implantable central venous access device (port-a-cath). Although we agree with the device value, the approach value is inaccurate.
Question: A patient diagnosed with Stage IIIC ovarian cancer underwent placement of an intraperitoneal port-a-catheter during total abdominal hysterectomy. An incision on the costal margin in the midclavicular line on the right side was made, and a pocket was formed. A port was then inserted within the pocket and secured with stitches.
Question: The patient has a malfunctioning right internal jugular tunneled catheter. At surgery, the old catheter was removed and a new one placed. Under ultrasound guidance, the jugular was cannulated; the cuff of the old catheter was dissected out; and the entire catheter removed.
