Question

After obtaining an aortogram and CT scan, a 45-year-old woman was found to have an infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm measuring at least 4.5 cm in size that has not ruptured. It was felt that with the rapid recent expansion, she should have this aneurysm repaired. The infrarenal artery aneurysm was repaired at the level of the renal arteries to the aortic bifurcation. What is the cpt code?

Answer 1

CPT code is - 34701 Endovascular repair of infrarenal aorta by deployment of an aorto-aortic tube endograft including pre-procedure sizing and device selection, all non selective catheterization(s), all associated radiological supervision and interpretation, all endograft extension(s) placed in the aorta from the level of the renal arteries to the aortic bifurcation, and all angioplasty/stenting performed from the level of the renal arteries to the aortic bifurcation; for other than rupture.
