DX: Anogenital wart

Procedure performed: Anoscopic cauterization of the anorectal wart

Intraoperative findings reveal a perianal wart at 5 o'clock position. Endoscopic examination revealed again acetowhite area In the anus circumferentially. Multiple areas were noted. Using cautery, these areas were cauterized. the perianal wart at 5 o'clock position excised.

I am struggling on this case. I am not sure that I should assign 17110 (perianal wart) or 46910 ( since the surgeon mentioned using endoscopic).

Thanks for the advice.
