Repair Of Graft-To-Bowel Fistula

Minnesota rates for HCPCS 35870

Repairs an abnormal connection that has formed between an artificial blood vessel graft and the intestine, where the graft has eroded into the bowel wall. Because bowel contents and blood are meeting, this causes bleeding into the digestive tract and serious infection, and it must be treated surgically. The bowel is repaired and the affected graft area is dealt with at the same operation.
