I have been unsuccessful in finding a code that will work for a Excisional Biopsy of left juglar chain lymph node. ![Roll eyes :rolleyes: :rolleyes:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
A transverse incision was done 3 cm below the angle of the jaw. The external jugular was divided between ligature and the lymph nodes were dissected. Part of the mass was sent for frozen section. .
Facisa was approximated using 2-0 vicryl, subcutaneous tissure using 3-0 vicryle and skin using subcuticular 4-0 vicryle.
I was looking at 21555 but this is not soft tissue bx..then looking at 38510??
Any advice would be welcomed!!
Thanks so much!![Stick out tongue :p :p](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
