the dr. performed a rigid proctosigmoidoscopy the anal retractors were inserted and the point of maximal fluctuance ws then aspirated with an 18-gauge spinal needle. the overlying mucosa was then incised with electrocautery. the opening was enlarged with finger fracture and the abscess cavity was aspirated with suction. the only code i find is 46040.
