Clipping Of A Brain Aneurysm At The Front Circulation

Colorado rates for HCPCS 61700

Opens the skull to reach a balloon-like bulge on an artery of the brain's front circulation, the part fed by the carotid arteries, and closes it off with a small metal clip so blood no longer enters it. Securing the aneurysm prevents a first or a further bleed around the brain. This applies to aneurysms of straightforward size and shape.
