CPT instructs that harvesting and repairing the skin graft donor site is included in the skin graft code (and its valuation). You repair a nasal defect with both an adjacent tissue rearrangement (CPT 14060) and a full thickness skin graft (CPT 15260).

In this instance, the abdominal wall functions as one unit that can be re-approximated to itself, and there is not a fascial defect, per se. Where this type of closure can be accomplished, report CPT code 49900 (suture, secondary, of abdominal wall for evisceration or dehiscence).
Code 15734 can only be reported once for each side. It cannot be reported four times— once for each posterior and anterior side. Only one muscle flap is mobilized on each side. Code 15734 is an open procedure.
You can only charge for implantation of mesh for ventral and incisional hernias. You can not use it with code 49505, as it is an inguinal hernia and the mesh is included.

To manage these complex hernias, component separation is one technique that can aid in the repair of these difficult hernias.
Answer: The abdominal wall is composed of multiple layers (components). In a component separation repair, the layers are separated, so the defect (hernia) can be closed primarily. Since the resulting abdominal wall is now only one layer, it is often reinforced with an additional layer of mesh or other material.
You’ll notice that everything in CPT is in centimeters, not inches, so be aware of that. If you have a report or, God forbid, they put it in inches, you will have to convert it. Sq cm is just length x width. There’s a lot of math in the integumentary system.
You can use these dermal skin grafts which are, if you picture the skin, you have the epidermis and then you have the dermis, that’s the true skin. So, whenever you see skin and already see split thickness, just think of that dermis. Then, below it, you have “subcu” (subcutaneous); you go down to fascia, muscle and bone.
They do have allografts and homografts that come from cadaver. So, just like there were blood banks, there’s also skin banks, tendon banks, and in areas to get this kind of tissue. Just be aware that there’re lots of different bubbles in the skin grafting.
A large defect is created in the nasolabial fold and the surgeon needs to create three flaps to close the defect. Even though three flaps are created, three flaps cannot be coded because there is only one defect. But the closure of the secondary defects that are created by all of the flaps may be coded for, so make sure they are accounted ...
A rotation flap is a curvilinear flap that closes a defect by a rotating the skin around a pivot point. A transposition flap is cut, lifted, and transferred over intervening tissue onto the defect. This type of flap is also referred to as a rhombic, bilobed, or nasolabial fold flap. And with an advancement flap, tissue is moved in a straight line and stretched over the defect. This is also referred to as a V-Y repair or flap.#N#The primary defect is usually created from the excision of a benign or malignant lesion. The creation of the primary defect is included in an adjacent tissue transfer and not separately coded. Adjacent tissue transfers create secondary defects by their very nature, lifting-up skin and moving the skin over to cover the primary defect. Closing the secondary defect is also coded in addition to the adjacent tissue transfer. The secondary closure may be part and parcel of the adjacent tissue transfer, which closes both the primary and secondary defect, or an additional graft may be needed to close the secondary defect, requiring an additional grafting code.#N#If the adjacent tissue transfer closed both the primary defect and the secondary defect, add both the size of primary defect plus the size of the secondary defect to determine the size of the flap that is coded. If a split thickness graft or free graft is used to close the secondary defect, only the primary defect would be used to determine the size of the adjacent tissue flap that is coded. Let’s look at some examples.
Surgeons may have to create multiple flaps to close a defect, but the multiple flaps cannot be coded since there is only one primary defect. Also, the removal of the lesion to create the primary defect is considered included in the adjacent tissue arrangement. Per CPT® Assistant July 2008, Volume 18: Issue 7, Coding Communication, ...
