Vein Connection Added To A Leg Bypass Graft

Connecticut rates for HCPCS 35686

During a bypass operation in the leg, the surgeon creates a small connection between the bypass and a nearby vein at its lower end. The extra outflow keeps blood moving briskly through the graft, which helps it stay open when the arteries beyond it are badly diseased. It is billed in addition to the bypass.
