Wiki Pta atherectomy femoral/popliteal

[OPENSHAW]

Would this be coded correctly?

Procedure performed as follows:

1. Left lower extremity angiogram with distal runoff
2. Successful csi atherectomy to the left popliteal artery with 1.5 solid crown
3. Successful percutaneous transluminal angioplasty to the left popliteal calcific lesion
4. Mynx groin closure

would this be coded as:

37225
or
37225, 75710-26-59

thank you!

The 37225 is correct.

Coding for the angiograph would depend on if the patient had a previous diagnostic study.
