Re: perforated ulcer and exploratory lap

Could anyone help me with this? The Dx was a perforated prepyloric ulcer and an exploratory lap and closure of ulcer with Graham patch was performed.
Thanks for your help.

You might want to look at the description of procedure code 43840.

Hope this helps.
