How would you code a chest wall defect? The pt has had sternal reconstruction in the past. He now complains that he 'notes an impulse of his left ventricle transmitted through the skin in the inferior portion of his chest wall'. He is having surgery to reconstruct his chest wall. What Dx code would you use?
