The physician performed a Aorto to bifemoral bybass graft but by left thoracotomy. Any ideas on how to code this?

thanks

I would need more information to help you with your question. Was the graft synthetic, vein or a combination of both? If this helps, the approach is not separately billable and includes obtaining saphenous vein grafts.
