Repair Of A Narrowed Main Body Artery

Florida rates for HCPCS 33840

Removes a narrowed segment of the aorta, the main artery carrying blood from the heart to the rest of the body, and restores an open channel so blood flows normally past that point. The narrowing forces the heart to work harder, raising blood pressure in the arms and head while pulses in the legs stay weak. It is reached through an incision in the side of the chest.
