CPT Procedure codes for repair of abdominal aortic aneurysm

ENDOVASCULAR REPAIR OF ABDOMINAL AORTIC ANEURYSM 34800-34834
For trancatheter placment of wireless physiologic sensor in aneurysmal sac, use 34806 :: :: For analysis, interpretation, and report of implanted wireless pressure sensor in aneurysmal sac, use 93982


Codes 34800-34826 represent a family of component procedures to report placement of an endovascular graft for abdominal aortic aneurysm repair. These codes describe open femoral or iliac artery exposure, device manipulation and deployment, balloon angioplasty and/or stent deployment and closure of the arteriotomy sites. Source: CPT book


Report separately introduction of guidewires and catheters (eg. 36200, 36245-36248, 36140). Extensive repair or replacement of an artery should be additionally reported (eg. 35226 or 35286). Source: CPT book

Report additional interventional procedures performed at the same time of the endovascular abdominal aneurysm repair outside of the endoprosthesis target zone, when done before or after deployment of graft. Source: CPT book

Report 75952 for radiological supervision and interpretation in conjunction with endovascular repair codes 34800-34808. Source: CPT book

Report codes 34812 (femoral), 34820 (iliac), 34833 (iliac with conduit), 34834 (brachial) for open arterial exposure as appropriate in addition to endovascular repair code 34800-34808. Source: CPT book

Report code 34806 for transcatheter placement of wireless physiologic sensor in aneurysmal sac. Report code 93982 for analysis, interpretation, and report of implanted wireless pressure sensor. Source: CPT book

Use code 34808 in conjunction with codes 34800, 34813, 34825, 34826. For radiological supervision and interpretation, use 75952 in conjunction with 34800, 34802, 34804, 34808.
