Hello:

Hope you can help with this one. My Doctor removed 16 lipomas that were in a row across the patient's abdomen subcutaneously. I am a little confused on how to code this many at once. I was looking to use the 27327 but can we code for all 16 removed with one incision?
Any help would be greatly apprciated.

Thanks!!!
