Injection To Seal A Bulge In An Arm Or Leg Artery

North Carolina rates for HCPCS 36002

A clotting medicine is injected through the skin into a false aneurysm, a contained pouch of blood that has leaked out of an artery in an arm or leg, most often after a needle or catheter puncture. Ultrasound guides the needle so the pouch clots and seals while the artery itself stays open. It avoids an operation to repair the vessel.
