A 40-year-old male has a painful mass in the anterior thigh. Magnetic resonance imaging confirms a 12-cm
infiltrative mass in the anterior compartment of the thigh. Incisional biopsy reveals a high-grade liposarcoma.
Following wide surgical resection of the mass, catheters are implanted throughout and surrounding the tumor bed for subsequent afterloading brachytherapy. What is the CPT code for the procedure done?
