ICD-10-PCS Code	Description
XFJD8A7	Inspection of Pancreatic Duct using Single-use Duodenoscope, New Technology Group 7

Typical Clinical Scenarios

An elderly patient is admitted with severe epigastric pain, persistent vomiting, and elevated serum lipase suggesting acute pancreatitis; imaging shows a suspected obstructing pancreatic duct stone causing ductal dilation and infection risk, prompting inpatient endoscopic evaluation to directly visualize the pancreatic duct and assess for obstruction or need for further intervention. Typical codes: XFJD8A7.
A middle-aged patient with chronic recurrent pancreatitis and progressive weight loss is scheduled for an inpatient diagnostic endoscopy to evaluate persistent strictures and intraductal pathology after noninvasive imaging was inconclusive; the procedure is performed electively to visually inspect the pancreatic duct and guide therapeutic planning. Typical codes: XFJD8A7.
A patient presenting after recent pancreatic surgery develops rising drain output with concern for a postoperative pancreatic duct leak; during the inpatient stay, direct inspection of the pancreatic duct using a single-use duodenoscope is performed to identify the leak site and inform management. Typical codes: XFJD8A7.
