Transurethral biopsy of the prostate

The physician took the pt to the OR for a TURBT ( transurethral resection of bladder tumor) at the end of the procedure the physician did a transurethral biopsy of the prostate.
Is there a code for this?
Thanks

Did you look at code 55700- Biopsy, prostate; needle or punch, single or multiple, any approach.

I did, but was confused by the wording, normally 55700 is transrectal
but it does say any approach.
Thanks for your help!
