Unusual bilateral common iliac angioplasty with one balloon

Date: Jul 12, 2018

Question:

My provider described doing an intervention in a manner that I can't really put a code to. Is there a code for the following? "I then used an 8 x 80 mm balloon and performed bilateral common iliac artery angioplasty with the balloon straddling over both common iliac arteries."
