Apex-To-Aorta Heart Conduit Surgery

Montana rates for HCPCS 33404

Open-heart surgery that builds a tube from the tip of the heart's main pumping chamber to the aorta, the large artery leaving the heart. Blood can then travel out of the heart along the new route as well as through the natural outlet, which relieves the strain when that outlet is too narrow to be widened or replaced in the usual way.
