We have a CPT code 33244 for "Removal of single or dual chamber pacing cardioverter-defibrillator electrode(s); by transvenous extraction ". What code is needed for removal of additional lead from rt ventricle. The pt has 3 leads removed (1 in right atrium and 2 in right ventricle) coded 33244 for two leads. What should be coded for the third lead removal.

Thanks
