Vaginal mass
I am trying to find the correct code (CPT® and DX) for a mass on the vagina 3-4 cm in size. I have no luck finding this can anyone help please. The patient is having a surgery.
Thank you and God bless!

re: Vaginal mass
What about the CPT® code? Is there not a DX specific for Vagina Mass?

re: Vaginal mass
"Mass" to me would mean not yet definitively identified. You could potentially look at neoplasm, uncertain behavior by site until the pathology returns. The procedure code depends on what the MD does.
