Ask Dr. Z

In a facility setting, how would the following procedure be coded? "The patient presents with a 10 French Malecot type catheter in a pelvic collection previously shown to be associated with a colocutaneous fistula. Catheter has been connected to a bag with minimal drainage. Aspiration of the catheter yields only 1 cc of serous fluid. The catheter was NOT injected with contrast material or saline. The suture material retaining the catheter is removed. The catheter is advanced out about 2 cm and resutured to the skin under local anesthesia. Total fluoroscopy time 0.6 minutes."
