Renal Vein Transposition
Date: Dec 31, 2014
Question:
I'm looking at using an unlisted code for this procedure (37799): renal vein reimplant to the IVC/renal vein transposition (being done for nutcracker syndrome on one case, and renal vein entrapment with pelvic congestion syndrome on another). I wasn't sure if you were aware of something better to use.
Need to ask Dr.Z?
