Having trouble finding the most appropriate CPT code for an atherectomy of the iliac vein. Any help would be most appreciated.
 
Hello, do you have a procedure report that you could post? Atherectomy normally applies to arterial vessels.

Thanks.

Sorry, no procedural report, this was a general question from a physician. I know it is rarely performed, but he has performed on occasion.
 
Hello, 0238T is a Category III code for transluminal peripheral atherectomy, open or percutaneous, of the iliac artery. As for the iliac vein, I would need to see a procedure report.

Someone else may have additional thoughts about your question.
