In this add–on procedure, the provider restores the blood supply in each additional unilateral tibial or peroneal artery through an endovascular, open or percutaneous approach after he performs the same procedure on an initial tibial or peroneal vessel. He performs this procedure with transluminal angioplasty, a surgical procedure in which the provider places a balloon catheter at the site of an occlusion in the blood vessel and inflates the balloon to expand the lumen of the vessel. Use this code when the provider performs this procedure on each additional vessel.
