Banding Of The Lung Artery

New Mexico rates for HCPCS 33690

Open heart surgery that places a band around the main artery carrying blood to the lungs, narrowing it so less blood is forced through. Cutting that flow back protects the lung blood vessels from damage and eases the strain on the heart. It is usually a temporary step in an infant until a full repair can be done.
