A 37-year-old woman presents with abdominal pain, bleeding unrelated to menses, and an abnormal pap showing LGSIL (low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion). Treatment is hysteroscopy with thermoablation of the endometrium and cryocautery of the cervix. This is performed without difficulty. What are the CPT® and ICD-10-CM codes reported for this procedure?

A 20-year-old patient presented to the hospital with a history of bloody stools for three weeks' duration. The patient was prepped for a sigmoidoscopy. The sigmoidoscope was passed without difficulty to about 40 cm. The entire mucosal lining was erythematous. There was no friability of the overlying mucosa and no bleeding noted. No pseudopolyps were identified. Biopsies were taken at about 30 cm; these were thought to be representative of the mucosa in general. The scope was retracted; no other abnormalities were seen. What CPT® and ICD-10-CM codes are reported?
This 45-year-old male presents to the operating room with a painful mass of the right upper arm. Upon deep dissection, a large mass in the soft tissue of the patient's shoulder was noted. The mass appeared to be benign in nature. With deep blunt dissection and electrocautery, the mass was removed and sent to pathology. What CPT® code is reported?
