Hi Guest!
If the procedure were performed separately, then yes you can. Or do you mean that the lesion/cyst was sent to a pathology lab after if was removed? The ICD code will typically be listed on the path lab report, but otherwise here are some coding options:
D10.39 - Benign neoplasm of other parts of mouth
K09.0 - Developmental odontogenic cysts
K09.1 - Developmental (nonodontogenic) cysts of oral region
K09.8 - Other cysts of oral region, not elsewhere classified
Hope this helps!
