Iliac vein angioplasty
I have just completed a CPC course in which we were highly concentrated on this area and if I am not mistaken you would use 37221 which is Revascularization (Angioplasty) via the iliac (artery) with stent placement. This is via iliac artery though so be sure of your access

Iliac Vein Stent
The correct CPT code for the Iliac Vein stent is 37205 plus the S&I 75960. You can also code the Selective Cath Placement
The 37220-37235 are for Lower Extremety Arterial Treatments.
