Wiki Billing Confusion - Aborted procedure, then a new attempt

This is racking my brain. I have a patient who was seen IP for a hip and pelvic fx. Day 1 the patient was seen by our provider. Day 2 the patient was transferred to OR for procedure, but the procedure was aborted after two attempts due to tracycardia. Day 3 the patient was evaluated and then on day 5 the procedure was performed with success. Now, this is confusing on the billing since it is a new situation. This is what I am billing according to documentation.
99222-57
24515-LT-53
99232-57
24515-LT (58?)
27193-LT (Second procedure for pelvic fx)

My question is can I billed the 99232-57 and do I need to add a modifier 58 to the procedures that were successful?
Thanks!
