For the bladder biopsy, you will need either 52204 (Cystourethroscopy, with biopsy) or 52224 (Cystourethro-scopy, with fulguration [including cryosurgery or laser surgery] or treatment of MINOR [less than 0.5 cm] lesion[s] with or without biopsy) depending on whether the documentation indicates that the urologist removed a minor lesion at the time of the biopsy. And if the posterior bladder dissection was a significant portion of the operation, you may report 51080-52 (Drainage of perivesical or prevesical space abscess; Reduced services), 44005 (Enterolysis [freeing of intestinal adhesion] [separate procedure]), or unlisted-procedure code 53899 (Unlisted procedure, urinary system), depending on the documentation. The urologist also appears to have repaired a bladder laceration. If this is the case, report 51860 (Cystorrhaphy, suture of bladder wound, injury or rupture; simple) or 51865 ( complicated).
