Can this procedure be coded more than once per knee -- as in medial, lateral and patellofemoral compartment?

I do not find any documentation that states that we can not...but I personally would not. My reasoning is that the description of the procedure does state "adhesions" so I dont think it matters where they are in the knee or how many. My thought process is that it covers the entire joint.

I would love to be proven wrong though if anyone has anything on this they can share.
