Unifocalization of Scattered Lung Arteries

Louisiana rates for HCPCS 33925

Open chest surgery for a child whose lung arteries never formed as one connected system, so different parts of the lungs are fed by separate scattered vessels. The surgeon gathers those vessels and joins them into a single pulmonary artery, so blood reaches the whole of both lungs through one pathway. It is a long and complex operation, often one of several staged procedures.
