Answer options

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct CPT® code is 54057, which is used for the destruction of condylomata acuminata of the penis involving laser treatment. Code 54055 is for a different procedure that does not include laser treatment, while codes 57056 and 57050 apply to procedures related to the female genital system, not applicable in this scenario.
