Patient presents with a palpable mass in the parotid gland.  Chief complaint includes  parotid swelling, parotid lump, or facial mass.  Location of the mass is noted as being in the superficial or deep lobe of the parotid gland, with size and consistency documented.  Associated symptoms may include pain, facial weakness, facial numbness, dysphagia, or trismus.  Differential diagnosis includes pleomorphic adenoma, Warthin tumor, parotid malignancy, benign lymphoepithelial lesion, and sialolithiasis.  Physical examination reveals a (description of mass: firm, mobile, fixed, tender, non-tender, etc.) mass in the (right or left) parotid region.  Cranial nerve VII function is assessed and documented.  Imaging studies, such as ultrasound, CT scan, or MRI of the parotid gland, may be ordered to further evaluate the mass.  Fine needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) or core needle biopsy may be performed for pathological diagnosis.  Treatment options, including surgical resection (parotidectomy superficial, total, or radical), observation, or further investigation, will be discussed with the patient based on the biopsy results and clinical findings.  Patient education regarding parotid gland anatomy, parotid surgery risks and benefits, and potential complications such as Frey syndrome, facial nerve paralysis, and salivary fistula, will be provided.  Follow-up appointment is scheduled for (timeframe) to review biopsy results and discuss the treatment plan.  ICD-10 code D11.0 (Benign neoplasm of parotid gland) or appropriate malignancy code will be assigned pending diagnostic confirmation. CPT codes for procedures performed, such as FNAB or imaging studies, will be documented accordingly.
