Answer 2

Answer:

CPT Code 52005, ICD 10 code 600.91, ICD-10 Code 591

Explanation:

CPT Code 52005 ICD10-CM code is used for cystourethroscopy with ureteral catheterization, or ureteropyelogrpahy, reported bilaterally with modifier.  

ICD10 code 600.91 is indicated for prostatic hyperplasia, or unspecified urinary obstruction and lower urinary symptoms.  

ICD-10 CM code 591 indicates hydronephrosis.

The codes 600.91 and 591 were similar to ICD-9 CM codes.
