My doc did the following in surgery after a Posterior Colporrhaphy:
"Semilunar curvilinear incision was performed to remove the labia minora and a mattress 4-0 Monocryl cuture was placed bilaterally to close the edges of the mucosa. There were no complications..."
I'm having trouble coding this. Would it be 15839 (Excessive skin removal, other area)? That's really the only thing I can find. Help would be much appreciated!
