|---|---|---|
| 1 | Section0 | Medical and Surgical |
| 2 | Body System1 | Peripheral Nervous System |
| 3 | Root OperationP | Removal Taking out or off a device from a body part |
| 4 | Body PartY | Peripheral Nerve |
| 5 | ApproachX | External |
| 6 | DeviceM | Neurostimulator Lead |
| 7 | QualifierZ | No Qualifier |
