Patient had a confirmed basal cell carcinoma of left lower eyelid. Operation was a wedge resection excisional biopsy of supicous lesion. Not sure about this code-that is, any ideas ?
 
Since the op note indicates excisional biopsy, I'm assuming the entire lesion was removed. If so, how about 67840. If not, how about the 116xx codes.
