Repair of an Aortic Root Leak Into the Heart

Pennsylvania rates for HCPCS 33710

Open-heart surgery to close an abnormal channel running from a small pouch at the root of the aorta into one of the heart's chambers, which lets blood escape from the aorta where it should not. The surgeon patches the opening from inside the heart while a heart-lung machine takes over the circulation. Left untreated, the leak overloads the heart and leads to heart failure.
