Wiki Hidradenitis (breast)

Ran into an usual question from a plastic surgeon provider who did an usual case and is asking for help in proper procedure codes for:


Surgery: Excision of hidradenitis, reconstruction of synmastia with complex closure

Hidradenitis was in the intermammary space (“cleavage area” of breasts).
It was excision of that, and also reconstruction of synmastia, not just regular closure of excision site --- so more complicated.



I was thinking: 11451/19380

Can someone suggest other codes or does that sound about right?? Help anyone please
