A patient has a biopsy of the lesion of the right shoulder. The pathology report states compund dysplastic nevus margin is positive. The patient comes back. The procedure: The lesion was destroyed by 6 mm excision. Healing by secondary intention. Pathology was sent. A punch biopsy of the skin right shoulder was sent to pathology which stated no residual nevus seen. Margins negative.
Is dysplastic nevus considered premalignant by CPT? Would you report 17000 or 17110?
