ICD-10-PCS Code For Ovary: Procedure Code Group Overview

The International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, Procedure Coding System (ICD-10-PCS) code group DU20 includes procedures performed to deliver stereotactic radiosurgery to ovarian tissue in the female reproductive system. These ICD-10-PCS codes are used for inpatient documentation when a focused, high-precision radiation treatment is performed on the ovary. Accurate coding within the ICD-10-PCS DU20 group is essential for proper inpatient reimbursement, as it captures the specific procedure performed and supports clinical documentation accuracy.

Ovary Stereotactic Radiosurgery Procedure Overview

The procedures in this ICD-10-PCS group involve stereotactic radiosurgery targeting the ovary within the female reproductive system. These procedures deliver precisely focused radiation to ovarian tissue for therapeutic purposes. Accurate inpatient coding is important because it documents the stereotactic radiation procedure performed and supports correct case mix assignment and payment.

Typical Clinical Scenarios

A postmenopausal woman with a solitary, well-defined ovarian metastasis from a previously treated primary malignancy is admitted for inpatient stereotactic radiosurgery as part of a localized, organ-preserving treatment plan. Imaging confirms a small target confined to the ovary, and the treatment team selects a highly conformal photon beam to deliver a focused high-dose fraction while minimizing exposure to surrounding pelvic organs. The procedure is performed electively during the inpatient stay for precise immobilization and observation. Typical codes: DU20DZZ
A reproductive-age patient presents after acute onset pelvic pain and imaging demonstrates a vascularized ovarian lesion causing hemorrhage risk; multidisciplinary review determines urgent stereotactic radiosurgery to the ovary to rapidly ablate the lesion while avoiding immediate surgery. Because the treatment requires delivery of particulate radiation for rapid devascularization of the target tissue within the inpatient setting, stereotactic particulate radiosurgery is selected and performed under monitored conditions. Typical codes: DU20HZZ
A patient with a previously treated ovarian tumor develops a persistent focal recurrence at the ovarian remnant after conventional external beam therapy; the team plans a focused radiosurgical session using a gamma beam to treat the recurrent nidus while sparing adjacent structures. The inpatient stereotactic procedure is undertaken to ensure precise head-to-pelvis frame or immobilization positioning and immediate postprocedure monitoring given prior radiation exposure. Typical codes: DU20JZZ
