Wiki Help with Dx for Vocal Cord Lesion

[bella2]

I'm looking for help with a Dx code for a lesion of the vocal cord, this is the only Dx provided by my Doctor and there is no pathology report to go on, I would really love to hear opinions from other coders on this one.
Thanks in advance for any responses
