You Can Use Procedure Codes 44340 - 44345. You Will Need To Review The Operative Report To Level Of The Procedure.

If by reversal you mean take-down or closure, it's 44620 with no resection, 44626 for closure with resection & colorectal anastomosis, or 44625 for closure with resection & any other type of anastomosis.
