Is there a CPT code for control of postoperative penile bleeding? Chordee repair with firlit flaps and circumcision was done. (CPT codes 54161 & 54324). Later in the day, patient returned to OR for control of penile bleeding. The frenulectomy site was explored with considerate oozing detected, all control with electrocautery. Further electrocautery was applied deep to the ventral penile shaft. Is this an unlisted CPT code 55899. Thank you
