How would i code open mesh repair of rt indirect inguinal hernia and excision of lipoma of cord??? Would that be the spermatic cord?
 
You need to know if the hernia was reducible, incarcerated or strangulated. The spermatic cord lipoma is 55520 dx 214.4
 
the hernia was reducible (49505) I was more intereted in the cord. I thought it would be the spermatic cord, as I know of no other and55520 is the code I chose. Thanks:)
