CPT code 32601 refers to "Thoracentesis, aspiration of pleural effusion, and/or insertion of a pleural catheter." This procedure involves the removal of fluid from the pleural space surrounding the lungs for diagnostic or therapeutic purposes. It is typically performed to relieve symptoms or to analyze the fluid for disease processes. Always consult the latest coding guidelines or a medical billing professional for the most accurate and current information.
