The patient has a fracture of the right proximal ulna and closed reduction is nec- essary. In the
ICD-10-CM Code Book, under Fracture, ulna, proximal, the coder is referred to Fracture, ulna,
upper end. The term "manipulation" is used to indi- cate reduction in CPT. According to CPT
guidelines, cast application or strapping (including removal) is only reported as a replacement
procedure or when the cast
application or strapping is an initial service performed without a restorative treatment or
procedure (AMA CPT Professional Edition 2020, 182). (Note: Since this is an ambulatory
surgery center case, CPT codes are assigned rather than ICD-10-PCS codes.)

58662Laparoscopy, surgical; with fulguration or excision of lesions of the ovary, pelvic

ANS: B
The code that best reports the tubal ligation is 58670 Laparoscopy, surgical; with fulguration
of oviducts because there are no clips or excision of lesion completed during the procedure
(CPT Assistant Nov. 1999, 29; March 2000, 10).
