I'm not familiar with coding ENT and cannot figure this out. Can someone help me?

Procedure: Excision of a 2.5cm with a 0.6 cm margin. Paramedian graft nasal reconstruction w/ preservation of vascular pedicle.

Path: SCC

Would 11644 be the appropriate CPT?
 
Need the entire SCRUBBED op note

For an accruate response to surgical coding questions, please post the scrubbed operative / procedure note.

Cannot tell from the small snippet you provide what the correct code(s) should be.

Hope that helps.
