The following scenario? (I posted this under the General Surgery last week, but have not received any responses, so I thought I would try this here.)



Diagnostic laparoscopy converted to open laparotomy with revision of ileocolonic anastomosis including partial resection of small bowel and partial resection of colon.

thanks!
 
It has been a good while since I coded for surgery but it seems like a possible repeat 44160. Would review op note and consult surgeon as necessary.
