  1. During a c-section, dr found a small tissue mass located in the peritoneum above bladder. Using sharp dissection, mass was dissected out. I don't believe it would be a laparoscopy code but I'm not sure what to use.

  2. I believe the code range to be 52224-52240 as per the size of the mass. For Medicare, bill the single code for the largest single tumor removed.
