ICD 9 procedure codes do not look like they follow the convention outlined in https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/pccc/vignettes/pccc-overview.html Codes < 10 should be front padded with "00" and codes < 100 should be padded with "0". But, e.g. code 06.4 (endocrine disorders) was listed as 064 (so matches 64.0 = circumcision). Will fix others in future commit

ICD-9 Procedure codes are a maximum of four digits. 00152 is not a valid ICD-9 procedure code, 0152 is a valid code. specifically, this is 01.52 which is a Hemispherectomy.

The leading zero for 253 is an error.
First, the compact ICD-9 procedure code 253 expands to 25.3 as the full code which is a "complete glossectomy" and maps to a gi issue.
a compact code of the form 0253 would expand to the full form of 02.53 which is not a known ICD-9 procedure code.
