Is there a code for an open repair for a common bile duct injury over a T tube? I must be missing it when reviewing the descpriptions for cholecystectomy procedures. The injury and the repair occurred during the surgery for an open cholecystectomy. CBD exploration and a cholangiogram were also performed. So far I have: 47605. I feel that the repair code might include the exploration.

Please Help!!!

Thank you!
