Mississippi rates for HCPCS 35311

Surgery to clear the fatty, hardened deposit lining a large artery in the upper chest that carries blood towards the arm and head, reached through an incision in the chest. The surgeon opens the artery, peels out the diseased inner lining, and closes the vessel, widening it with a patch where that is needed. Clearing the blockage restores flow beyond the narrowed section.
