Removal Of The Sac Around The Heart, No Bypass Machine

Rhode Island rates for HCPCS 33030

Removes most or all of the pericardium, the fibrous sac around the heart, when it has become thickened and stiff and is stopping the heart from filling properly. It is done with the heart beating on its own, without support from a heart-lung machine. Freeing the heart from the constricting shell lets it fill normally again.
