685.0 Pilonidal cyst with abscess
Possibly an Uracal Cyst
A pilonidal cyst is a cyst or abscess near or on the top of the buttocks that often contains hair and skin debris.
A granuloma is smaller in size less than 4 mm in diameter where as cyst is a sequela of granuloma so it is larger in size.
It is most likely a cyst or an abscess. A cyst is a cluster of cells while an abscess is a collection of pus. It should be checked out by a doctor as soon as possible to be on the safe side.
A pilonidal abscess, or pilonidal cyst, is an infection occurring near the intergluteal cleft. It's often caused by an ingrown hair.
Marsupialization is a medical term referring to a process for preventing the recurrence of an abscess. In marsupialization, the provider cuts into the abscess, then sutures the edges of the slit to the inner wall of the abscess. This increases the odds of continuous drainage.

Marsupialization is a surgical technique that involves creating a permanent opening in a cyst or abscess to allow it to drain continuously. It is not a common procedure for liver cysts or abscesses, as other methods like drainage or antibiotics are usually preferred. Your healthcare provider will determine the most appropriate treatment based on the specific characteristics of the cyst or abscess.
A batholian cyst or abscess occurs when there is an infection in the Bartholin's glands, which are located on either side of the vaginal opening. E. coli and Staphylococcus bacteria can enter these glands, often due to trauma, sexual activity, or poor hygiene, leading to inflammation and blockage. The infection can result in the formation of a cyst filled with pus, causing pain, swelling, and discomfort. Treatment typically involves drainage of the abscess and, in some cases, antibiotics to target the underlying bacterial infection.
The CPT code for incision and drainage of a Bartholin's cyst is 56420. This code specifically refers to the surgical procedure for draining a Bartholin's gland cyst or abscess. It's important to document the procedure accurately to ensure proper coding and billing.
