Wiki synovectomy

[PLAIDMAN]

Could please use your opinions

my doc is doing repair of ligament in ankle outside of ankle joint (27698) which states that in includes limited synovectomy. he is also doing arthroscopic synovectomy inside of the ankle joint.

would you code the scope since he is going inside of the joint??

thanks

I'd code the scope and include v64.43 if the note supports it.
