Wiki phlebectomy of a dorsal vein

[jgossett]

My doc did a I & D of an abscess on a patient's hand and underneath found a septic clot in a vein, which he cut out and ligated the ends of the vein. I cannot come up with the procedure code for this phlebectomy. All of the ones I am finding refer to vericose veins in the legs. Can any one help?
