stent at carotid bifurcation with coiling at ACA

Date: Feb 24, 2021

Question:

We had a patient who had right carotid bifurcation stenting with DEP (37215-RT) and then went on to have an anterior communicating aneurysm coiled. Since the stent catheter placement is bundled, can we capture a catheter placement for the embolization? (It appears that there was not a separate access site.)
