This 45-yeаr-оld mаle presents tо the оperаting room with a painful mass of the right upper arm. General anesthesia was induced. Soft tissue dissection was carried through the proximal aspect of the teres minor muscle. Upon further dissection a large mass was noted just distal of the IGHL (inferior glenohumeral ligament), which appeared to be benign in nature. With blunt dissection and electrocautery, the 4 cm mass was removed en bloc and sent to pathology. The wound was irrigated, and repair of the teres minor with subcutaneous tissue was closed with triple-0 Vicryl. Skin was closed with double-0 Prolene in a subcuticular fashion.

Operаtive Repоrt PATIENT:SURGEON:ASSISTANT:PREOPERATIVE DIAGNOSIS: HYPOPLASIA OF THE BREAST.POSTOPERATIVE DIAGNOSIS: HYPOPLASIA OF THE BREAST.OPERATIVE PROCEDURE: BILATERAL AUGMENTATION MAMMOPLASTY USING SILICONE GEL IMPLANTS.ANESTHESIA: Generаl. OPERATIVE SUMMARY: The pаtient was brоught tо the operating room awake and placed in a supine position where general anesthesia was induced without any complications. The margins of the dissection were marked to be the sternal border within two fingerbreadths of the clavicle slightly beyond the anterior axillary line and slightly below the inframammary crease. The chest was prepped and draped in the usual sterile fashion. The left breast was done first. An inframammary crease incision was made going through skin. subcutaneous tissue, down to the muscle fascia. Dissection was then carried in the subglandular plane to the above mentioned areas. After careful hemostasis and irrigation with normal saline, an Allergan high profiled textured silicone gel implant was placed into this pocket. There was good shape for this area. The skin was closed after careful inspection for hemostasis with 4-0 Vicryl in an interrupted fashion for the deep subcutaneous tissue, 4-0 Monocryl in a superficial subcutaneous interrupted suture for the superficial layer, and then 4-0 Monocryl in a running subcuticular fashion for the skin. Antibiotic ointment and Tegaderm were applied. The right breast was approached in a very similar fashion. An Allergan implant 400 cc high profile silicone gel with a textured surface was also used. Skin closure was similar. The patient's left and right breast were very similar in size and shape. The patient had a bra applied. The patient tolerated this procedure well and left the operating room in stable condition.What CPT® codes are reported for this patient encounter?
