91. PRE OP DIAGNOSIS: Left Breast Abnormal MMX or Palpable Mass; Other Disorders of Breast
PROCEDURE: Automated Stereotactic Biopsy Left Breast
FINDINGS: Lesion is located in the lateral region, just at or below the level of the nipple on the 90 degree
lateral view. There is a subglandular implant in place. I discussed the procedure with the patient today
including risks, benefits and alternatives. Specifically discussed was the fact that the implant would be
displaced out of the way during this biopsy procedure. Possibility of injury to the implant was discussed with
the patient. Patient has signed the consent form and wishes to proceed with the biopsy. The patient was
placed prone on the stereotactic table; the left breast was then imaged from the inferior approach. The
lesion of interest is in the anterior portion of the breast away from the implant which was displaced back
toward the chest wall. After imaging was obtained and stereotactic guidance used to target coordinates for
the biopsy, the left breast was prepped with Betadine. 1% lidocaine was injected subcutaneously for local
anesthetic. Additional lidocaine with epinephrine was then injected through the indwelling needle. The
SenoRx needle was then placed into the area of interest. Under stereotactic guidance we obtained 9 core
biopsy samples using vacuum and cutting technique. The specimen radiograph confirmed representative
sample of calcification was removed. The tissue marking clip was deployed into the biopsy cavity
successfully. This was confirmed by final stereotactic digital image and confirmed by post core biopsy
mammogram left breast. The clip is visualized projecting over the lateral anterior left breast in satisfactory
position. No obvious calcium is visible on the final post core biopsy image in the area of interest. The patient
tolerated the procedure well. There were no apparent complications. The biopsy site was dressed with Steri-
Strips, bandage and ice pack in the usual manner. The patient did receive written and verbal post-biopsy
instructions. The patient left our department in good condition.
IMPRESSION: 1. SUCCESSFUL STEREOTACTIC CORE BIOPSY OF LEFT BREAST CALCIFICATIONS. 2. SUCCESSFUL

POSTOPERATIVE DIAGNOSIS: Displaced impacted Colles fracture, left distal radius and ulna.
OPERATIVE PROCEDURE: Reduction with application external fixator, left wrist fracture
FINDINGS:The patient is a 46-year-old right-hand-dominant female who fell off stairs 4 to 5 days ago
sustaining an impacted distal radius fracture with possible intraarticular component and an associated ulnar
styloid fracture. Today in surgery, fracture was reduced anatomically and an external fixator was applied.
PROCEDURE: Under satisfactory general anesthesia, the fracture was manipulated and C-arm images were
checked. The left upper extremity was prepped and draped in the usual sterile orthopedic fashion. Two small
incisions were made over the second metacarpal and after removing soft tissues including tendinous
structures out of the way, drawing was carried out and blunt-tipped pins were placed for the EBI external
fixator. The frame was next placed and the site for the proximal pins was chosen. Small incision was made.
Subcutaneous tissues were carried out of the way. The pin guide was placed and 2 holes were drilled and
blunt-tipped pins placed. Fixator was assembled. C-arm images were checked. Fracture reduction appeared
to be anatomic. Suturing was carried out where needed with 4-0 Vicryl interrupted subcutaneous and 4-0
nylon interrupted sutures. Sterile dressings were applied. Vascular supply was noted to be satisfactory. Final
frame tightening was carried out. What CPT® code(s) is/are reported?

PROCEDURE: Radical hysterectomy and pelvic lymph node sampling.

ANESTHESIA: General.

ESTIMATED BLOOD LOSS: 400 mL.

COMPLICATIONS: None.

SPECIMENS: Submitted to the laboratory labeled as pelvic washings, uterus, tubes, ovaries, and pelvic lymph
nodes

FLUIDS ADMINISTERED: 2 L crystalloid.

DESCRIPTION OF PROCEDURE: Patient was placed under general anesthesia. She was converted to a frog-leg
position perineum and prepped in a sterile fashion. A transurethral Foley catheter wasthenplaced. A midline
vertical incision was made from the umbilicus to the symphysis, and the abdomen was entered. The
peritoneum over the left and right paracolic gutter, surface of the spleen,liver, and left and right
heridiaphragm were normal. The gallbladder did not contain stones. The small bowel was examined from the
ligament of Treitz to the lleocecal valve and was normal. Therewas no paraaortic adenopathy. The omentum
was normal, both kidneys were palpable. Examination of the pelvis and perineum revealed normal
peritoneum in all 4 quadrants. The uterus was well-suspended; It was normal in size. There was no obvious
tumor. Both adnexa were normal: The Bookwalter@) retractor was placed. Bowel was packed into the
abdomen. Washinas were collected usinanormal saline. The uterus was rasped with Kocher clamps. The right
round ligament was transected with electrocautery. The retroperitoneal space were opened and fully
developed. We saw noadenopathy.The ureter was visualized. The ovarian vessels were isolated, cross-
clamped,transected, and llgated x 2 with O Vicryl&. Similarly the left round ligament was transected
withelectrocautery, the retroperitoneal space was opened and fully developed with no adenopathy, Bladder
flap was then taken down sharply with electrocautery. The uterine arterles, the uterosacralligaments, and
the cardinal ligaments were crossclamped with curved Heaney clamps, and pedicles were formed and llgated
with O Vicry1@. The uterus was removed, the vagina was closed withinterrupted sutures of O Vicryl@. We
then performed lymph node sampling on the left followed by the right, all lymphatic tissue was removed
from the bifurcation of the external and internal Illacartery down to the drumflex iliac vein and inferiorly to
the obturator nerve. The uterus was inspected. It appeared the volume of the tumor occupying the
endometrial surface was approximately40%, with less than 50% myometrial invasion. The abdomen was
irrigated and the fascia was closed with a running nonlocking suture of #1 PDS. The subcutaneous tissues
were reapproxdmatedwith2-0 Vicryi. The skin was closed using staples. The patient tolerated the procedure
well and left the suite in good condition. What CPT codes are reported?
