For a percutaneous tenotomy of the shoulder is it appropriate to code this as a 23405 with a 52 modifier or should this be reported with the unlisted cpt code 23929?

In this case would the modifier 52 be appropriate in reporting the approach considered appropriate since there was no open procedure with a layered closure?

Any feedback would be very helpful.

Thank you!
