Popliteal Artery Aneurysm Repair

Date: Nov 4, 2022

Question:

For the stent graft of the popliteal to mid SFA with exclusion of popliteal, I use 37236-RT. How do you code open exposure right femoral 2/2 large antegraded femoral sheath? I am looking at 34812, but I do not have the primary code. I am wondering if 37236 is the correct code to use. Please help.
