Stent Graft Repair Of The Abdominal Aorta

Louisiana rates for HCPCS 34705

Repairs a weakened, ballooned section of the main artery in the abdomen from the inside, by threading a fabric-and-metal lining up through the leg arteries and opening it out to take the pressure off the artery wall. This version uses a lining that divides into two limbs, one running into each artery heading toward the pelvis, and covers a planned repair rather than emergency treatment of a burst artery.
