Cystoscopy, left ureteroscopy, holmium laser lithotripsy, stone manipulation, stent removal and replacement are performed. The holmium laser was used to break up a cluster of stones at the ureteropelvic (UP) junction which were removed with a basket and a Gibbons stent was exchanged. Previous CT scan showed stones in the lower right pole. It was decided to proceed with ureteroscopy. Ureteroscope was inserted in the right ureter, confirming multiple stones within the proximal ureter. These were basketed and removed. What CPT® codes are reported for this service?

Following calculation of the planned transrectal ultrasound, guidance was provided for percutaneous perineal placement of 1-125 seeds into the prostate tissue. What CPT® code is reported for needle placement to insert the radioactive seeds into the prostate

Benign prostatic hypertrophy with outlet obstruction and hematuria. Operation: TURP Anesthesia: Spinal Description of procedure: The patient was placed on the operating room table in sitting position and spinal anesthesia induced. He was placed in the lithotomy position, prepped and draped appropriately. Resection was begun at the posterior bladder neck and extended to the verumontanum (a crest near the wall of the urethra). Posterior tissue was resected first from the left lateral lobe, then right lateral lobe, then anterior. Depth of resection was carried to the level of the circular fibers. Bleeding vessels were electrocauterized as encountered. Care was taken to not resect distal to the verumontanum, thus protecting the external sphincter. At the end of the procedure, prostatic chips were evacuated from the bladder. Final inspection showed good hemostasis and intact verumontanum. The instruments were removed, Foley catheter inserted and the patient returned to the recovery area in satisfactory condition. What CPT® code is reported for this service?
