What would the CPT code be for a synovial cyst removal of the wrist.
 
Excision-- removal
carpal-- wrist bones

In the CPT book under the Surgery/Musculoskeletal system, under the sub heading Excision code 25130 states "Excision or curettage of bone cyst or benign tumor of carpal bone". Code 25130 is the correct answer.
