Would like help coding this procedure
Dx: Neurofibromatosis masses, wrist and fingers
Procedure:
Patient had 3 masses, one in dorsum of left wrist, dorsum of middle finger proximal phalanx, one in ulnar aspect middle finger [middle phalanx].
Small incision made over each mass that was superficial. Blunt dissection was carried down. Masses removed in their entirety and sent to pathology. Hemostasis achieved with electro cautery. Irrigated with 10% Betadine solution, closed with nylon. Dressed and wrapped.
No complications.
Thanks in advance
