== Additional Info ==

*This code ~~does NOT include~~ the following artificial openings which have their own codes:

*This is intended for such openings that they come in with, i.e. had PRIOR to the start of ''this'' database record.

*Of course during the database record when the artificial opening was created, the sole correct code is a CCI code for that procedure, e.g: [[Chest tube, left in place]]

*This applies equally if the artificial opening is still patent, but there is no longer a device in it.

'''Includes:'''

* Ileal conduit (urostomy)

* PD catheter

* Nephrostomy tube

* Mitrofanoff procedure, also known as the Mitrofanoff appendicovesicostomy, is a surgical procedure in which the appendix is used to create a conduit, or channel, between the skin surface and the urinary bladder.

'''Excludes: '''

* The following artificial openings which have their own codes:

**[[Suprapubic catheter, indwelling, has one]]

**[[Tracheostomy, has one]]

**[[Gastrostomy, has one]]

**[[Ileostomy or colostomy, has one]]

*~~Note that this does NOT include~~ having an indwelling Foley, as Foleys do not go through an "artificial opening". Indeed we are NOT currently capturing the presence of an indwelling Foley.

* having an indwelling [[Foley]], as Foleys do not go through an "artificial opening". Indeed we are NOT currently capturing the presence of an indwelling [[Foley]].
