I have a chart that states the patient has residual silicone in the breast due to a history of a mechanical complication of a breast implant. Would the following codes be appropriate? Any info would be appreciated. Thanks!

729.6- Residual foreign body in soft tissue
v43.82- History of the Breast being replaced by other means
