The CPT code for cystourethroscopy with fulguration of a bladder tumor is 52240. This procedure involves the use of a cystoscope to visually inspect the bladder and urethra, followed by the application of heat or laser to destroy tumor tissue. It is typically performed to treat bladder tumors while minimizing damage to surrounding tissue.
What is pathology CPT code for Brain biopsy for frozen section and additional rescetion of tumor
Cystourethroscopy is NOT a diagnosis, but rather, a procedure. Therefore, the CPT procedure code is 52000.
CPT code 52000 refers to "Cystourethroscopy, diagnostic," which involves the use of a cystoscope to visually examine the bladder and urethra. CPT code 52204 refers to "Cystourethroscopy, with biopsy," indicating a procedure where a cystoscope is used not only for examination but also to obtain a biopsy of the bladder or urethra. Both codes are used in urology for diagnostic and therapeutic procedures related to the urinary tract.
The ICD-10 code for a bladder tumor is C67. This code is part of the C67 category, which specifically covers malignant neoplasms of the bladder. It's important to specify the exact type and location of the tumor as there are subcodes for different types of bladder tumors. Always consult the latest coding guidelines or a healthcare professional for accurate coding.
It is cystourethroscopy
The CPT code for cystourethroscopy is typically 52000 for a diagnostic procedure. If the cystourethroscopy is performed with a specific therapeutic intervention, additional codes may apply, such as 52204 for cystourethroscopy with manipulation of the bladder or urethra. It's important to consult the latest CPT coding guidelines or a medical coding professional to ensure accurate coding for specific situations, such as intermittent hematuria.
