Has anyone coded one of these before? Guess I am wondering if the codes are 52317/52318 and 51040?
 
Depending on the op note, I believe you are correct on this code selection. In my office we had a similar case that we sent to the AUA coding hotline. In our case they recommended 51525 and 52317. In this instance the stone was actually located in a bladder diverticulum that was accessed percutaneously.

Hope this helps.
