Wiki Discontinued Excision of Cyst

[jkb77]

I am hoping for some help/reassurance with CPT code/modifier selection on a procedure. The patient presented to our family practice clinic to have a cyst removed from scalp. The physician started to excise the cyst but noted that it went further into the skull than she had anticipated. She stopped the procedure and repaired the defect (5 cm). Would it be appropriate to bill the cpt code for the cyst excision and append modifier 53 discontinued procedure?

Thank you in advance for your help!!
