When a patient has a revision of her breast reduction to remove that excess axillary skin, what dx codes should I use? I've been using 701.9 (atrophy/hypertrophy skin), but I'm just wondering if there are any others that would help. Any suggestions? :confused:
 
That's what I use also, sometimes I struggle using it because you know that it probably isn't going to be covered.
