One of our ped docs did an in-office ligature on a newborn's 6th finger. CPT code? This one has me stumped
Thanks
 
Polydactyly 11200

If you look up polydactyly in your CPT you'll be directed to CPT 26587 ... BUT ... when you look at 26587 there is a parenthetical remark -
(For excision of polydactylous digit, soft tisssue only, use 11200.)

Hope that helps.
