CPT 39586: Diaphragmatic Resection with Prosthetic Material

CPT 39586 describes diaphragmatic resection of a secondary malignant lesion with extensive use of prosthetic material (e.g., mesh) for reconstruction.

Indicated for metastatic tumor invasion of diaphragm requiring wide excision and structural repair. Includes harvest and placement of prosthetic graft. Distinct from simple diaphragmatic laceration repair (39540) or plication (39545).
