"exposure of anterior surface of the spine at l4-l5 and l5-si and l4, l5, and s1 partial corpectomy, posterior l4 to s1 fusion and instrumentation, and anterior lumbar interbody fusion l4-l5 and l5-s1.

Anyone know the code for this?
 
You need to post the entire note

For an accurate response to surgical coding questions, please post the scrubbed operative / procedure note.

Additionally, I think you'd get a more expert response if you posted in the Orthopaedics Forum Thread.

Hope that helps.

I code neurosurgery, please post a scrubbed OR and I can probably help you with the correct codes.
