HI all, kinda new to eye surgery coding . IS a pars plana vitrectomy a intregal part of 67113 ?
 
Yes offcourse its a integral part of the code 67113,

CPT code 67113 is described as: Repair of complex retinal detachment (eg, proliferation vitreoretinopathy, stage C-1 or greater, diabetic, traction retinal detachment, retinopathy of prematurity, retinal tear of greater than 90 degrees), with vitrectomy and membrane peeling; may include air, gas or silicone oil tamponade, cryotherapy, endolaser photocoagulation, drainage of subretinal fluid, scleral bucking, and/or removal of lens.

We can't code 67113 along with vitrectomy code.

To report vitrectomy, Pars Plana approach, other than in retinal detachment see 67036-67043
