Aortic root aneurysmorrhaphy repair & ascending aortic wrap
Date: Feb 28, 2024
Question:
I have search everything I can find but have only found CPT code 33852 which seems to be partially correct or should I use the misc code 33999 CPT code for the following procedure. Please help. Sternotomy was performed; Aortic valve & root were inspected via TEE; Eccentric jet of mild AI noncoronary & right coronary leaflets; Aortic root was wrapped down to a 3cm size this reduced the AI down & all leaflets were moving well; chest tube & blake drains were placed. There is no mention of clamping or cardiopulmonary bypass. Thank you for your assistance
