    Only the (infected) reservoir was removed, not sure if it would be 54406-52 (Removal of all components of a multi-component, inflatable penile prosthesis without replacement of prosthesis)

    Thank you!

    Hi.  I would code it that way, also.  In fact, in the CPT book, under the code, it is written (For reduced services use 54406 with modifier 52)..
