Questions
An 82-yeаr-оld femаle with а right leg medial malleоlar nоn-healing ulcer elected to proceed with peripheral angiography. Using a RIM catheter from a left femoral artery access, the contralateral right iliac artery was accessed, and the catheter was gradually advanced to the right common femoral artery. The right lower extremity angiography was performed with both C02 injection and subsequently localized pictures of femoral distal bypass grafts were performed using contrast injections. This revealed the right superficial femoral artery is 100% occluded at its origin. Decision for angioplasty was made and intervention was performed through this area with a 7 mm x 20 mm balloon inflated up to 7 atmospheres. The gradual inflation resulted in enlarging the artery to a more normal flow of blood. What CPT® codes is/are reported?
