Radical perineal prostatectomy is sometimes used when the cancer is limited to the prostate and there is no need to spare nerves
The CPT code for a partial prostatectomy, particularly when performed via a suprapubic approach due to a benign tumor, is typically 55840. This code specifically describes the procedure of excising a portion of the prostate gland. However, it's important to verify with the latest coding guidelines or a medical coding professional, as codes may vary based on specific circumstances and updates in coding practices.
Partial prostatectomy is an open surgery to remove part of the prostate gland, leaving the posterior portion intact. Partial prostatectomy is usually performed through an incision in the lower abdomen (retropubic prostatectomy). Open prostatectomy is a surgery to remove all or part of the prostate by making an incision in the patient's lower abdomen or perineum. Open prostatectomy can be either a partial or radical procedure. Radical prostatectomy is an pen surgery to remove the entire prostate gland along with nearby tissues such as the seminal vesicles. Radical prostatectomy can be performed through an incision either in the lower abdomen (retropubic prostatectomy) or in the space between the scrotum and the anus (perineal prostatectomy).
CPT code 54500 refers to the procedure of a radical prostatectomy, which involves the surgical removal of the prostate gland and some surrounding tissue. This procedure is typically performed to treat localized prostate cancer. It can be done through various techniques, including open surgery or minimally invasive approaches. The code captures the complexity and nature of the surgical intervention.
