The undersurface of the clavicle was noted to be quite prominent and part of the impinging process. The burr was introduced through a lateral portal and the anterior lip of the acromion was resected. There was a large anterior spur formation. The undersurface of the rotator cuff was clearly visualized and also noted to be normal.

What CPT® code is reported?Ī young female patient was taken to the operative suite and was placed under appropriate anesthesia. The platysma muscle was closed and the skin was closed with subcuticular closure. Once all bleeding was controlled, a 10 French round drain was placed in the wound. This was not surgically repaired or resected. The parotid gland was noted to have a blast injury near the tail. There was no penetration of the internal jugular vein, but a foreign body was identified resting on the internal jugular vein at approximately the level of the angle of the mandible and it was removed. A sternocleidomastoid incision was performed and carried down through the platysma muscle. He was sent to the operating room for neck exploration to rule out vascular injury and injury to the aerodigestive tract (respiratory and digestive tracts).
