Iliac aneurysm repair with non-covered stent
Date: Sep 5, 2019
Question:
Our physician treated a common iliac aneurysm using a non-covered stent; he used just a plain peripheral stent. Would this be reported with the endograft iliac aneurysm repair code (34707), or would we report a stent placement code (37236) and the cath placement code?
