Wedge resection: A wedge resection involves the removal of lung cancer along with a wedge-shaped section of tissue surrounding the tumor. This procedure removes less lung tissue than a lobectomy. Lobectomy: The most common type of lung resection. In this procedure, one or multiple lobes are removed from your lungs.
CPT® codes 32666-32668 describe diagnostic and therapeutic wedge resections. A wedge resection involves the surgical removal of a wedge-shaped portion of tissue from one or both lungs, and is usually performed for the diagnosis or treatment of small lung nodules.
You could use 32482 for the thoracotomy with 2 lobes removed. You could bill for the bronch, 31622 with a modifier.
Thoracoscopic wedge resection (TWR) is a minimally invasive (non–rib spreading), nonanatomic limited resection of a lung portion. The technique involves a video thoracoscope for access. The only difference between TWR and open resection in terms of technique is that the former involves minimal invasiveness.
Segmentectomy and wedge resection surgery are treatments to remove cancer from the lung. These types of surgeries remove only the lung mass and a small portion of the lung along with it, whereas other surgeries, like a lobectomy, remove one or more lobes of the lung.
Open procedures of the thorax include the approach and exploration. CPT code 32100 (thoracotomy, major; with exploration and biopsy) shall not be reported separately with open thoracic procedures to describe the approach and exploration.
The Current Procedural Terminology (CPT®) code 32506 as maintained by American Medical Association, is a medical procedural code under the range - Removal Procedures on the Lungs and Pleura.

From 2012, CPT code for chest drainage with a catheter (32551) was changed to an open procedure designation. . Code 32556 or 32557 are used for percutaneous placement of an indwelling pleural drainage tube.
A partial lobectomy (single or multiple segmentectomies in one lobe) is reported with 47120. A smaller wedge resection is reported with code 47100, Biopsy of liver, wedge.
