POSTOPERATIVE DIAGNOSES 1. Bilateral mixed hearing loss with significant conductive component in the lower frequencies, left ear worse than the right. 2. Left middle ear tympanosclerosis around the incus and stapes. PROCEDURE PERFORMED 1. Left middle ear exploration. 2. Left incus and stapes mobilization. ANESTHESIA: General endotracheal. INDICATIONS: This is a 16-year-old female with a long history of hearing loss. Recent audiometric testing indicated bilateral mixed hearing loss with a significant conductive component in the lower frequencies. The left ear was worse than the right. The patient has used hearing aids but noted that the hearing aid is not as effective as it had been. As such, the patient’s mother opted for exploration to correct any ossicular abnormality if noted, with the exception of stapedectomy. PROCEDURE: After consent was obtained, the patient was taken to the operating room and placed on the operating table in supine position. After an adequate Joul of gonoral in wor PROCEDURE: After consent was obtained, the patient was taken to the operating room and placed on the operating table in supine position. After an adequate level of general endotracheal anesthesia was obtained, the patient was positioned for surgery on the left ear. The patient’s left ear was prepped with Betadine and draped in a sterile manner. One-percent Xylocaine with 1:100,000 units of epinephrine was infiltrated into the postauricular area and then in all four quadrants of the ear canal. The speculum was secured with a speculum holder. A tympanomeatal flap was then elevated in standard fashion. The ossicular chain was intact; however, the incus and stapes were not mobile. There was tympanosclerotic plaque around the incus and stapes. With meticulous dissection this was removed. Subsequently, the incus and stapes were mobile. The round window area showed that the niche was very deep, and the membrane could not be seen. Fluid was placed into the niche to see if a round window reflex could be elicited, but a clear obvious round window reflex was not elicited. The tympanomeatal flap was then placed back in its normal position. Gelfoam soaked with Physiosol was then placed lateral to this and brought out through the proximal ear canal. The proximal ear canal was then filled with Bacitracin ointment. A cotton ball coated with Bacitracin ointment was placed in the conchal bowl area and a Band-Aid dressing applied. The patient tolerated the procedure well, there was no break in technique, and the patient was extubated and taken to the postanesthesia care unit in good condition. Fluids administered: 1000 cc RL. Estimated blood loss: Less than 5 cc. CPT Code(s): ICD-10-CM Code(s):_ Abstracting Questions: 1. Is the mobilization of the incus reported separately? 2. What procedure was the surgeon NOT authorized to perform?

POSTOPERATIVE DIAGNOSIS: Right L4-5 and L5-S1 herniated disc. OPERATIVE PROCEDURE 1. Right L4-5 discectomy. 2. Right L5-S1 discectomy. INDICATION: This is a 21-year-old female who presented with a greater than 1-year history of right leg pain. It was refractory to conservative treatment. MRI scan showed a severely bulging L4-5 and L5-S1 discs on the right. After a discussion of the options, she elected surgery. The risks were thoroughly discussed, and the patient gave her consent. PROCEDURE: The patient was taken to the operating room and underwent induction of general endotracheal anesthesia in the supine position. The patient was then flipped to the prone position on the operating room table. The hips and the knees were flexed. The lumbosacral area was thoroughly prepped and draped, and a vertical midline skin incision was made over the L4-5 and S1 spinous processes after the skin was infiltrated with local anesthetic. Using the monopolar cautery, I dissected through the subcutaneous tissue in the midline down to the spinous processes of L4-5 and S1. I then used the periosteal elevator and retracted the paraspinal muscles laterally along L4-5 and S1. An intraoperative x-ray was then taken, which verified that the marker was at the L4-5 interspace. I then removed the inferior 4 mm of the lamina of L4 with a Kerrison rongeur. I then incised the ligamentum flavum with a # 15 blade down to the epidural fat. I retracted the common dural sac and the right L5 nerve root medially. I palpated a very significant boalge underneath the root. then took a nerve hook and placed it underneath the dural space adjacent to the disc space and depressed the bulging disc space into the cavity I had created. I then removed additional pieces of disc. I then explored with a nerve hook and was content that the dural sac and the right L5 nerve root were nicely decompressed. Hemostasis was achieved with a bipolar cautery and strategically placed pieces of Surgicel. I irrigated with saline. An epidural fat graft was placed. I then reoriented my retractor toward the L5-S1 interspace. I removed the inferior 3 mm of the lamina of L5 with the Kerrison rongeur. I then incised the ligamentum flavum and resected it with the Kerrison rongeurs. I then retracted the common dural sac and the right S1 nerve root medially. There was a definite bulge within the disc space but not as significant as the above level. I incised the disc and removed additional pieces. I then decompressed the bulging annulus into the cavity I had created and removed additional disc. I was content after exploration with a nerve hook that the dural sac and S1 nerve root was nicely decompressed on the right. I then irrigated with copious amounts of saline. An epidural fat graft was placed. The wound was closed in layers with interrupted 0 and 2-0 Vicryl. The skin was closed with a running 3-0 Vicryl subcuticular stitch. Benzoin, Steri-Strips, and a sterile dressing were placed. The patient tolerated the procedure well without apparent complication. Sponge, instrument, and needle counts were correct. The patient was taken to the recovery room after the surgery. What is the CPT Code(s), and ICD-10-CM Code(s)?
