Back-Table Preparation Of Donor Lung Tissue

South Carolina rates for HCPCS 32856

Preparation of donated lung tissue after it has been recovered from the donor and before it is placed into the recipient. Working at a side table in the operating room, the surgeon frees the graft from surrounding tissue and shapes the airway and the blood vessel openings so they are ready to be joined to the recipient's own structures.
