The code is 11644 and 12052-51.

<h3>What are lesions?</h3>

An aberrant region of tissue inside or outside the body that could expand or alter in appearance, and which might or might not be malignant.

It is possible for lesions to have sources other than underlying diseases. Birthmarks, bug bites, and scars are a few examples.

Cancerous malignant tumors exist (ie, they invade other sites). They spread through the lymphatic or blood systems to distant locations. We refer to this spreading as metastasis. Although the metastatic disease can spread to any part of the body, it most frequently affects the liver, lungs, brain, and bones.

11644 (Excision, malignant lesion including margins, face, ears, eyelids, nose, lips; excised diameter 3.1 to 4.0 cm),

12052-51 (Intermediate repair; 2.5 cm or less; face, ears, eyes, nose, lips, and/or mucous membranes).

51 modifier is for numerous processes

Why is the observation that one hormone may bind to more than one type of receptor important?
Vlad1618 [11]
This is one reason that the same hormone can trigger different effects in different tissues. For example, epinephrine binds to four different receptors in different tissues-- eliciting a different response from each.
