Does anyone know the CPT code (s) for an endoscopic medial maxillectomy with drainage of extramaxillary sinus mucocele? He did an endoscopic endonasal resection of the mass with drainage/excision of the parasinus mass and use of intra-operative navigation, extradural. Patient had orbital trauma many years ago. This was all performed endoscopically not an external approach. Physician wants to use 31299. Thanks.
 
The navigation would be 61782. The maxillectomy would be 31225. I'm not quite sure what the code would be for the drainage of the mucocele, but I hope this is enough information to get you started.
