I am looking for what code in 2013 would be used to report Pneumocentesis.

The 2012 CPT code
32420 Pneumocentesis, puncture of lung for aspiration
was deleted for 2013 and the directive is to use
32405 Biopsy, lung or mediastinum, percutaneous needle

Can anyone tell me what code they are using to report the pneumocentesis?

Thank you for your help.
