Dr made longitudinal incision, complete reduction could not be performed, due to unstable nature of fx. The reduction was accomplished by introducing 2 K wires percutaneoulsy thru radial styloid across fx.

Any thoughts as to a CPT code for this? The answer is probably so elementary but I am definitely having a brain freeze today. Thanks
 
Colles is a Distal Radius Fracture. It depends on how many fragments the fracture was in. Look at 25607-25609
