Would dx code J39.9 or J 39.9 be appropriate for aspiration nothing else is stated in note ?

thanks
 
I think you need to query the doctor to get better documentation as to what was aspirated, is this a one time issue or a chronic problem, etc. Do not allow poor documentation and code poorly as a result.
