new coder needs help with CPTs

procedure: circumcision, cysto, TUR of prostate

Looking at 52630 and 54161. Wasn't sure if circumcision was billable with 52630?

Any help is appreciated. Thank you.

Do you have a seperate dx for 54161? Also, would 52601 be more apporiate for the TURP? 52630 is a TURP also, but for regrowth.
