Wiki need CPT FOR PARTIAL PATELLAR FASCIECTOMY

[RebeccaMoney]

Dr. tells me that he will be taking a little bit of bone(not tissue not cartilage) from the knee cap using the scope. I'm looking at unlisted, 29999, but need help with the comparison code. I'm thinking maybe 27350 Patellectomy or hemipatellectomy . Any help is much appreciated.
Thank you,

I get unlisted 29999 unless incision is made then you are right 27350

Yes, it's probably unlisted. Is that the only thing being done? If there is more work done at the same time it may be considered inclusive. Is it bony overgrowth or what is the reason?

Thank you both. Appreciate your input!
