I have a patient who had a TURP done July 2007..now in Feb 2008 the patient had regrowth and had to undergo a repeat TURP.

I've used 52630 for regrowth greater than 1 year post op. I'm not sure what to use about this one though.

I looked at 52620, but that's for residual tissue..but the dictation definitely says "regrowth"
Suggestions?

Thanks,
Jen
