Colonoscopy OP report indicates:
A sessile polyp was found in the descending colon. The polyp was 5mm in size. The polyp was removed with a hot forceps. Resection and retrieval were complete.
Normal mucosa was found in the entire colon. Biopsies were taken with a cold forceps for histology.
What are the correct codes to report?
Should it be just the 45384? Or 45384, 45380-59
Thank you very much.
