I need some guidance on this one:
Trauma patient had and exploratory laparotomy, which was negative. The diaphragm was then "grasped and incised. Pericardium was visualized and opened." The pericardium was examined and determined negative. Does anyone know a CPT code to use for the diaphragm incision with examination of the pericardium?
