The CPT code for the excision of a lipoma on the upper back typically falls under 11400-11446, depending on the size and complexity of the excision. For a simple excision of a lipoma, you would likely use 11400 (excision, benign lesion, excised diameter 0.5 cm or less) to 11406 (excision, benign lesion, excised diameter 4.1 cm to 5.0 cm). It's important to measure the size of the lipoma to select the correct code. Always refer to the most current coding guidelines for accuracy.
