3 34800 Endovascular repair of infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm or dissection; using aorta aortic tube prosthesis 3
4 34802 Endovascular repair of infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm or dissection; using modular bifurcated prosthesis (1 docking limb) 4
5 34803 Endovascular repair of infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm or dissection; using modular bifurcated prosthesis (2 docking limbs) 5
6 34804 Endovascular repair of infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm or dissection; using unibody bifurcated prosthesis 6
7 34805 Endovascular repair of infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm or dissection; using aorto uniiliac or unifemoral prosthesis 7
8 34825 Placement of proximal or distal extension prosthesis for endovascular repair of infrarenal abdominal aortic or iliac aneurysm, false aneurysm, or dissection; initial vessel 8
9 Example She then had an Endurant main body device advanced without difficulty through a left sided approach using the Endurant 28x16x145 length device. The contralateral gate was then cannulated from the right side using a guidewire and glide catheter. A contralateral limb was then placed using a 16x16x124 cm length device just proximal to the iliac bifurcation on the right side. On the left she had a distal type 1 endoleak that required the placement of a distal extension limb. Using an Endurant 24x24x82 cm length device was deployed 34802,
10 1 Example This was done in both groins, and after that, a 12 French sheath was placed on the right groin, and on the left, we inserted directly an Endurant 23 rnrn proximal diameter, 166 length, 16 distal diameter Endograft. After confirming the position of the renal arteries and the left hypogastric artery, we deployed the Endograft according to instructions for use without any complications. Using the right groin access, we cannulated the contralateral gate, and after confirming intragraft placement of the wire, we advanced an introducer and then a right iliac limb, 16 proximal diameter, 13 distal diameter, 124 in length, and deployed making sure that the right hypogastric artery remained patent. Balloon angioplasty was then performed within the
11 2 Example..opened the groins surgically in a routine manner and put 5 frnech sheaths within at the level of the common femoral artery. Two superstiff wires went up. We brought the main body from the left side, and pigtailed in from the right side. We did our initial angiogram, at the level of the renals. We went up with the ipsilateral limb, got that into position, marked the level of the internal iliac arteries with an angiogram, deployed very nicely and then went up the contralateral limb and did an angiogram and marked the origin of the internal iliac on that side and deployed the contralateral limb , x2 11

18 35102 Direct repair of aneurysm, pseudoaneurysm, or excision (partial or total) and graft insertion, with or without patch graft; for aneurysm, pseudoaneurysm, and associated occlusive disease, abdominal aorta involving iliac vessels (common, hypogastric, external) for ruptured aneurysm, abdominal aorta involving iliac vessels (common, hypogastric, external) 18
19 35301 Thromboendarterectomy, including patch, if performed; carotid, vertebral, subclavian, by neck incision 19
20 The physician makes an incision in the skin of the neck over the site of plaque or abnormal lining of the carotid, vertebral, or subclavian artery. The vessel is isolated and dissected from adjacent critical structures and vessel clamps are applied. A temporary vascular shunt may be placed, bypassing the area and allowing blood supply to continue uninterrupted during the procedure. The vessel is incised. Using a blunt, spatula like tool, the plaque and the vessel lining are separated from the artery and removed. The edge of the normal artery lining may be sutured to the artery wall to prevent separation when blood flow resumes. After the plaque and lining are removed, a patch graft taken from another portion of the patient's body, a cadaver, or a synthetic source may be applied and sutured to the vessel. This enlarges the diameter of the artery. The vessel clamps are removed and the skin incision is repaired with layered closure 20
21 35556 Bypass graft, with vein; femoralpopliteal Bypass graft, with other than vein; femoral popliteal 21
22 Through incisions in the skin of the leg overlying the femoral and popliteal arteries, the physician isolates and dissects a section of artery that is damaged or blocked. The physician creates a bypass around the superficial femoral artery, using a harvested vein and one of two methods of repair. Once vessel clamps have been affixed above and below the defect, the superficial femoral artery may be cut through above the damaged or blocked area and sutured to one end of a harvested vein. The vein is passed through a tunnel down the thigh muscles and behind the knee and sutured to the popliteal artery. In the second method, the ends of the harvested vein are sutured into the side of the femoral and popliteal arterial walls, resulting in a bypass of the damaged area. When the clamps are removed, the section of vein forms a new path through which blood can easily bypass the blocked area. The blocked or damaged portion of artery is not removed. After the graft is complete, the skin incisions are repaired with layered closures. 22
23 35583 In situ vein bypass; femoral popliteal In situ vein bypass; femoral anterior tibial, posterior tibial, or peroneal artery In situ vein bypass; popliteal tibial, peroneal 23
24 Through an incision in the skin of the leg overlying the greater saphenous vein, the physician isolates and dissects the greater saphenous vein from adjacent critical structures from the upper thigh to the level of the knee. Vessel clamps are affixed above and below the site of the anastomosis to the femoral and popliteal arteries. All side branches of the saphenous vein are tied off. The vessel's valves are destroyed. The upper end of the saphenous vein is divided and sutured into the femoral artery end to end or end to side. The lower end is divided and sutured into the popliteal artery end to end or end to side. The clamps are removed, and blood flows backward toward the feet, as if the vein were an artery. 24
25 35566 Bypass graft, with vein; femoralanterior tibial, posterior tibial, peroneal artery or other distal vessels Other than vein 25
26 Through incisions in the skin of the leg overlying the superficial femoral artery, the physician isolates and dissects sections of the femoral and anterior tibial, posterior tibial, or peroneal arteries. The physician creates a bypass around the affected artery using a harvested vein. Once vessel clamps have been affixed above and below the defect, the superficial femoral artery may be cut through above the damaged area and sutured to one end of a harvested vein, which is passed through an intramuscular tunnel and sutured to the anterior tibial, posterior tibial, peroneal, or other distal vessel. In the second method, the ends of the harvested vein are sutured to the side of the femoral artery and anterior tibial, posterior tibial, peroneal, or other distal vessel wall, resulting in a bypass of the damaged area. When the clamps are removed, the section of vein forms a new path through which blood can easily bypass the blocked area. The blocked or damaged portion of artery is left in place and not removed. After the graft is complete, the skin incisions are repaired with layered closures. 26
27 35558 Bypass graft, with vein; femoralfemoral Bypass graft, with other than vein; femoral femoral 27
28 Through incisions in the skin of the upper thighs, the physician isolates and dissects a section of the femoral arteries. The physician creates a bypass using a harvested vein. Once vessel clamps have been affixed above and below the area of anastomosis, the femoral artery may be cut through below the damaged area and sutured to one end of a harvested vein, which is sutured to the femoral artery in the opposite leg, resulting in a bypass of the damaged or blocked area. When the clamps are removed, the section of vein forms a new path through which blood can easily bypass the blocked area. The blocked or damaged portion of the artery is not removed. After the graft is complete, the skin incisions are repaired with layered closures 28
29 35565 Bypass graft, with vein; iliofemoral Bypass graft, other Than vein; iliofemoral 29
30 Through incisions in the skin of the lower abdomen overlying the iliac artery and in the skin of the upper thigh overlying the femoral artery, the physician isolates and dissects a section of common iliac artery. The physician creates a bypass around the iliac artery, using a harvested vein and one of two methods of repair. Once vessel clamps have been affixed above and below the defect, the iliac artery may be cut or tied off with sutures above the damaged area and sutured to one end of a harvested vein. The graft is passed through a tunnel on the inside of the upper thigh and is sutured to the side of the femoral artery. In the second method, the end of the harvested vein is sutured to the side of the iliac artery. Either method results in a bypass of the damaged area. When the clamps are removed, the section of vein forms a new path through which blood can easily bypass the blocked area. After the graft is complete, the skin incisions are repaired with layered closures. 30
31 35571 Bypass graft, with vein; popliteal tibial, peroneal artery or other distal vessels other than vein 31
32 Through incisions in the skin of the leg overlying the popliteal arteries, the physician isolates and dissects a section of arteries from adjacent critical structures. The physician creates a bypass around the artery, using a harvested vein and one of two methods of repair. Once vessel clamps have been affixed above and below the defect, the popliteal artery may be cut through above the damaged area and sutured to one end of a harvested vein, which is sutured to the tibial, peroneal, or other distal artery. In the second method, the ends of the harvested vein are sutured into the side of the popliteal and the tibial or peroneal arterial wall resulting in a bypass of the damaged area. When the clamps are removed, the section of vein forms a new path through which blood can easily bypass the blocked area. After the graft is complete, the incisions are repaired with layered closures. 32
33 Bypass Graft Bypass graft, with other than vein; axillary femoral femoral 33
34 Through an incision in the skin of the axilla and both upper thighs, the physician creates a bypass around a section of lower aorta that is damaged or blocked, using a synthetic graft. Once vessel clamps have been affixed above and below the defect, the synthetic graft is sutured to the side of the axillary artery and passed through a subcutaneous tunnel to the upper thigh where it is sutured end to end or end to side to the femoral artery. A second synthetic graft is sutured end to side to the femoral artery and passed through another subcutaneous tunnel to the opposite thigh where it is sutured end to end or end to side to the femoral artery. The section of blocked artery is not removed. When the clamps are removed, the two synthetic grafted limbs form a new path through which blood can easily bypass the blocked area. After the graft is complete, the skin incisions are repaired with layered closures. 34
35 Carotid Artery Stenting Transcatheter placement of intravascular stent(s), cervical carotid artery, percutaneous; with distal embolic protection Transcatheter placement of intravascular stent(s), cervical carotid artery, percutaneous; without distal embolic protection 35
36 Carotid Artery Stenting 36
37 The physician places an intravascular stent percutaneously through a catheter into the cervical carotid artery. A needle is inserted through the skin into the access blood vessel, usually the brachial or femoral artery. A guidewire is threaded through the needle into the cervical carotid artery and the needle is removed. Long sheaths or guiding catheters are advanced into the stenosed cervical carotid artery. A filter protection device may be inserted distal to the stenosis to capture emboli. After filter opening, predilation of the stenosis with angioplasty balloons may be performed. A catheter with a stent transporting tip is threaded over the guidewire into the vessel, and the wire is extracted. The catheter travels to the point where the vessel needs additional support. The compressed stent is passed from the catheter out into the vessel, where it deploys, expanding to support the vessel walls. The catheter is removed and pressure is applied over the puncture site 37

Then the physician punctures the left popliteal artery and via antegrade approach, performs angioplasty and stent placement in the left peroneal artery rt posterior tibial, lt peroneal, rt anterior tibial 53
54 A patient has had prior angiograms showing stenosis of the infrapopliteal vessels in the right leg. The physician punctures the right common femoral and deploys a drug eluting stent in the right tibioperoneal trunk. He also performs angioplasty of the right posterior tibial artery
55 3 Setup shots were done from the common femoral region demonstrating high grade disease in the popliteal of the left lower extremity. A wire was then placed down the posterior tibial and an SS Fox Hollow cutter was then utilized and multiple passes were made over below knee popliteal region with excellent results. Then attention was turned to the posterior tibial artery, which was done with the same cutter. Following this, a 3.0 x 100 balloon was utilized and the posterior tibial was ballooned at about 10 atmospheres. 55
56 3 Then attention turned to the peroneal artery. This was cut with the SS Fox Hollow cutter and then ballooned with a 2.5x 150 NanoCross balloon
57 Example A 7 French Ansel sheath was placed into the left common femoral region from the right groin. Catheter was placed in the popliteal, then an Xpeedior AngioJet catheter was utilized and at that time, we made multiple passes. Flow was restored in the vessel with stenotic tissue proximally and distally. We decided that we would stent over the remaining stenosis. A 6 x 20 balloon was then utilized to pre dilate that area where there was remaining stenosis and then a Supera stent was deployed extending past

109 45160 Excision of rectal tumor by proctotomy, transsacral or transcoccygeal approach 109
110 The physician removes a rectal tumor through a transsacral or transcoccygeal approach. The physician makes an incision at the junction of the sacrum and coccyx. The coccyx is excised and dissection is continued posteriorly to mobilize the rectum. The tumor is identified, an incision is made in the rectum (proctotomy), and the tumor is excised. The rectum is closed with sutures or staples. The initial incision is closed. 110
111 45402 Laparoscopy, surgical; proctopexy (for prolapse), with sigmoid resection Open 111
112 The physician completely mobilizes the rectum down to the pelvic floor and attaches the rectum to the sacrum using polypropylene mesh. The mesh is initially stapled to the sacral hollow and sutured on both sides of the rectum. The sigmoid resection is performed in conjunction with the proctopexy. Using a laparoscope, the physician mobilizes the sigmoid colon and rectum. The redundant segment of sigmoid colon and rectum are excised and an anastomosis is created between the remaining bowel ends with sutures or staples 112
