lung biopsy?
How do I code this? Do I need to query to clarify 3324 vs 3327?
There is no mention of fluoroscopy or lung tissue on path. However, path states that the specimen is 'right lower lobe lung biopsy and lung fragments'.
Endobronchial biopsies were performed in the right lower lobe of the
lung using a forceps and sent for histopathology examination.
Transbronchial brushings were obtained in the right lower lobe of the
lung and sent for routine cytology.
