The American Urological Association’s guidelines for IC consider cystoscopy with hydrodistention under anesthesia to be a third-line treatment for IC. This means that less invasive therapies should be attempted prior to this procedure.
2018/2019 ICD-10-PCS Procedure Code 0T7D8ZZ. Dilation of Urethra, Via Natural or Artificial Opening Endoscopic. ICD-10-PCS 0T7D8ZZ is a specific/billable code that can be used to indicate a procedure.
Cystoscopy (sis-TOS-kuh-pee) is a procedure that allows your doctor to examine the lining of your bladder and the tube that carries urine out of your body (urethra). A hollow tube (cystoscope) equipped with a lens is inserted into your urethra and slowly advanced into your bladder.
The American Urological Association’s guidelines for IC consider cystoscopy with hydrodistention under anesthesia to be a third-line treatment for IC. This means that less invasive therapies should be attempted prior to this procedure. It may reduce pain and discomfort in some IC patients, which can last 3 to 6 months.

When reporting transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT), you should submit 52235 (Cystourethroscopy, with fulguration [including cryosurgery or laser surgery] and/ or resection of; MEDIUM bladder tumor[s] [2.0 to 5.0 cm]) as the primary procedure code.
ICD-10-PCS has a seven character alphanumeric code structure. Each character contains up to 34 possible values. Each value represents a specific option for the general character definition (e.g., stomach is one of the values for the body part character).

The U.S. also uses ICD-10-CM (Clinical Modification) for diagnostic coding. The main differences between ICD-10 PCS and ICD-10-CM include the following: ICD-10-PCS is used only for inpatient, hospital settings in the U.S., while ICD-10-CM is used in clinical and outpatient settings in the U.S.

Your doctor may have you wait three to four weeks after the procedure.
It may reduce pain and discomfort in some IC patients, which can last 3 to 6 months. However, not everyone benefits from this procedure, and it may take up to several weeks to notice any symptom improvement. If you do have improvement, your physician may repeat the procedure for continued therapeutic benefits. Exactly why this procedure has therapeutic benefits for some is not known.
This process causes the bladder wall to stretch out (distend), allowing your physician to re-inspect your bladder with the cystoscope. If you have IC, your physician typically sees irritated areas (glomerulations) on the bladder wall. Also, the hydrodistention allows your doctor to check your bladder capacity under anesthesia.
In addition, in-office cystoscopy may not reveal the glomerulations on your bladder and the diagnosis of IC can be missed. Cystoscopy with hydrodistention is an outpatient surgical procedure. You will be admitted to the hospital, but in most cases, you will be discharged the same day as the procedure. Prior to this procedure, you may have basic ...
Your doctor will not perform your cystoscopy with hydrodistention in his or her office. The bladder needs to be filled to a high pressure in order to see the typical abnormalities of IC, a pressure that can cause significant pain if you are not anesthetized. In addition, in-office cystoscopy may not reveal the glomerulations on your bladder and the diagnosis of IC can be missed.
Cystoscopy with hydrodistention is no longer considered the “gold standard” in the diagnosis of IC because: Glomerulations can also be seen upon hydrodistention in those without IC symptoms. The degree of severity of the glomerulations does not correlate with the severity of IC symptoms. Some people with symptoms of IC have no glomerulations.
Although interstitial cystitis (IC) is generally diagnosed by the exclusion of other conditions, along with the hallmark symptom, pain, there are cases where an additional test is needed. Cystoscopy with hydrodistention under anesthesia may be necessary when an IC diagnosis is in doubt and the symptoms are complicated.
Your doctor might conduct a second procedure called ureteroscopy (u-ree-tur-OS-kuh-pee) at the same time as your cystoscopy. Ureteroscopy uses a smaller scope to examine the tubes that carry urine from your kidneys to your bladder (ureters).
Cystoscopy allows your doctor to view your lower urinary tract to look for abnormalities in your urethra and bladder. Surgical tools can be passed through the cystoscope to treat certain urinary tract conditions.
Your doctor might conduct a second procedure called ureteroscopy (u-ree-tur-OS-kuh-pee) at the same time as your cystoscopy.
A numbing jelly will be applied to your urethra to help prevent pain when the cystoscope is inserted. After waiting a few minutes for the numbing, your doctor will carefully push the cystoscope into your urethra, using the smallest scope possible.
Male urinary system. Your urinary system — which includes your kidneys, ureters, bladder and urethra — removes waste from your body through urine. Your kidneys, located in the rear portion of your upper abdomen, produce urine by filtering waste and fluid from your blood.
Why it's done. Cystoscopy is used to diagnose, monitor and treat conditions affecting the bladder and urethra. Your doctor might recommend cystoscopy to: Investigate causes of signs and symptoms. Those signs and symptoms can include blood in the urine, incontinence, overactive bladder and painful urination. Cystoscopy can also help determine the ...
Your bladder will be filled with a sterile solution. The solution inflates the bladder and allows your doctor to get a better look inside. As your bladder fills, you may feel the need to urinate.
