Cervical Plexus Destruction Procedure Overview
Procedures in this ICD-10-PCS group involve the deliberate destruction of all or part of the cervical plexus, a component of the peripheral nervous system that supplies sensation and motor function to portions of the neck and shoulder. These operations use energy, force, or destructive agents to ablate neural tissue and are performed for indications such as intractable pain or neuralgia. Accurate coding identifies the specific root operation and body part targeted, which is important for correct inpatient reimbursement and clinical recordkeeping.
