i don't know where to begin with this case, ESRD patient with non functioning avf graft underwent the following procedure

1. expoloration of the brachial axillary graft
2. thrombectomy of the graft both distally and proximally
3. surgical excision of the graft due to protusion of multiple wire through the graft lumen
4. attempted subclavian hemodialysis catheter placement with non-passage of the guidewire.

Please help!!!!!!
 
thrombectomy of graft look at codes 36870, percutaneous or 36831, open
excision of graft 35903 or 36832 and for subclavian placement 36558 or 494-- section.
