homogenous in color at this time. They do not appear to be any larger than 6 mm in size. No treatment is done for these today. Assessment and Plan: Skin tag removal. Procedure Notes: Skin tag removal. These areas were cleansed with alcohol. Curved iris and pickups were used to snip the skin tags off at the base of the two skin tags around the neck. Triple antibiotic ointment and a bandage was placed over these. For the skin tag in the right upper/inner thigh, 2% Xylocaine without epinephrine was used for anesthesia. It did have a somewhat large base, but a curved iris and pickups were used to cut the skin tag off at the base and handheld electrocautery was used to control bleeding. Triple antibiotic ointment and a bandage was put over this. Multiple actinic keratoses were treated with liquid nitrogen. One keratosis on the chest, one keratosis on the back, one keratosis above the right ear, one keratosis above the left ear. Each were treated with liquid nitrogen. Complex nevi. I advised him that he should have these looked at every six months, and he will return for this. CPT code(s):
Question 10 1 Point Code the following case study. One code is required. Preoperative Diagnosis: Internal derangement left knee Postoperative Diagnosis: Tear of lateral meniscus Procedure: Left knee arthroscopy, partial meniscectomy Procedure Notes: The arthroscope was inserted through the routine superolateral portal as well as an inferomedial portal for insertion of scope and instruments. The knee joint was then examined in routine manner; the medial meniscus was intact. The lateral meniscus was partially detached, and this portion was removed. No other defects were noted. The knee was irrigated well using normal saline. The instruments were removed from the knee. Wound closed with #4-0 nylon and dressed. Estimated blood loss 0. Intravenous fluids 1,000 cc.

Question 11 1 Point Code the following case study. One code is required. Preoperative Diagnosis: Dysphonia Postoperative Diagnosis: Dysphonia Procedure: Direct microlaryngoscopy under general anesthesia
Procedure Notes: A 40-year-old patient was taken to the OR where; under general a laryngoscope was inserted with the operating microscope to perform a laryngoscopy. The vocal cords were found to be totally normal on both sides with no evidence of nodules or granuloma formation. The entire endolarynx was well visualized. Moreover, there was no evidence of subglottic stenosis; and as the patient was awakening, vocal cord mobility appeared to be normal. The procedure was completed, and the patient awakened and was taken to the recovery room in good condition with stable vital signs. CPT code: Blank 1 o Blank 1
Question 12 1 Point Single layer closure of a 2.1 cm laceration on the right lower arm. Provide the CPT code: Blank 1 o Blank 1
Question 13 1 Point Code the following case study. Multiple codes required. Preoperative Diagnosis: Multiple lacerations to both ears Postoperative Diagnosis: Multiple lacerations to both ears, one laceration to the left ear and a series of four lacerations to the right ear Anesthetic: Local anesthetic was used. 1% Carbocaine Plain Indications: The patient sustained the above-named lacerations when she was involved in a hay wagon accident. Procedure Notes: The patient was treated in the emergency department. The right ear was treated first. There were a total of 4 lacerations on the right ear treated. The two smaller, more superficial lacerations, measuring 1.0 cm each were closed in a single layer after the wounds had been infiltrated with 1% carbocaine and then cleaned copiously with Betadine, saline, and peroxide. They were closed with simple interrupted #6-0 Prolene sutures. The two other lacerations on the right ear, totaling 3 cm in length (one laceration was 1.2 cm in length and the other laceration was 1.8 cm in length) were closed in multiple layers with #5-0 Vicryl suture after they had been infiltrated with 1% carbocaine prepared and draped in the appropriate fashion using Betadine, peroxide, and saline. The superficial layers were closed with interrupted #6-0 Prolene suture. After the right ear was completed the wounds were covered with polysporin. The 2.0 cm laceration on the left ear was then closed in a single layer. It was infiltrated with 1% carbocaine. After the wound was cleaned with Betadine, saline, and peroxide the

Question 17 1 Point Code the following case study. One code is required. Preoperative Diagnosis : Dermal Cyst of right breast Postoperative Diagnosis: Dermal Cyst of right breast Procedure Performed: Excision of Dermal Cyst of right breast Procedure Notes: Erythematous dermal cystic area of the right breast was marked out with an elliptical incision, anesthetized with local anesthesia, and prepped and draped sterilely. Incision was made elliptically, including the whole cyst down through the fatty tissue. On palpation afterward, no abnormalities were noted. Then the area had hemostasis obtained with electrocautery. The incision was closed with interrupted 3- Vicryl sutures. The skin was closed with interrupted 5-0 nylon sutures. Steri-Strips and a sterile dressing were applied over it. The patient tolerated the procedure well and was sent to the recovery room with instructions to be discharged home with follow-up appointment given. CPT code: Blank 1 o Blank 1

Question 21 1 Point Code the following case study. Multiple codes required. Subjective: This 17-year-old girl was struck in the nose by a baseball at school this morning. A 1.6 cm laceration on the right side of her nose is present. There has been only minimal swelling postinjury. She denies any loss of consciousness. She feels that her nasal airway was stuffy before the injury and remains slightly congested. Patient has mild right periorbital ecchymoses. There is deformity of the nasal bones with angulation to the left. x-rays from Radiology Associates across the hallway show a nasal fracture. Objective: Temp 98.4 degrees. Pulse 92, resp 22, weight 126. Examination of the nasal airway reveals dried blood in the superior left airway. There is some narrowing with septal deformity of the superior portion of the right airway. Remainder of the examination of the ears, throat, and neck were normal. Patient’s x-ray films were
essentially obstructing the glottic airway when the tube was in place. The polyps appeared larger on the right cord. Using the straight-cup forceps, the polyps were removed from the left cord first. The polyps were removed from the right cord up to the anterior commissure. Very minimal bleeding was noted. This opened up the airway extremely well. The patient was extubated and sent to recovery in good condition. CPT code: Blank 1 o Blank 1
