Extirpation of Matter from Lumbar Spinal Cord, Perc Approach
Axis Breakdown
Every ICD-10-PCS code is exactly seven characters, one per axis. Each character's meaning is defined by its position in the code.
| Position | Value | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Section0 | Medical and Surgical |
| 2 | Body System0 | Central Nervous System and Cranial Nerves |
| 3 | Root OperationC | Extirpation Taking or cutting out solid matter from a body part |
| 4 | Body PartY | Lumbar Spinal Cord |
| 5 | Approach3 | Percutaneous |
| 6 | DeviceZ | No Device |
| 7 | QualifierZ | No Qualifier |
MS-DRG Grouper Relationships (FY2026)
Potential MS-DRG participation — not a DRG assignment.
The MS-DRG grouper treats this as an operating room procedure. It appears in the surgical logic of 9 MS-DRGs:
- MDC 01 — Spinal Procedures: DRG 028, DRG 029, DRG 030
- MDC 21 — Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries: DRG 907, DRG 908, DRG 909
- MDC 24 — Other O.R. Procedures for Multiple Significant Trauma: DRG 957, DRG 958, DRG 959
From the CMS MS-DRG Definitions Manual, Appendix E. Actual DRG assignment depends on the complete claim.
