I am having a tough time finding laparoscopic codes for a gastrojejunostomy and a laparoscopic roux-en-y choledochojejunostomy. Patient has a common bile duct obstruction secondary to metastatic colon cancer. I have been looking at 43644 for the jejunostomy but empty handed for the laparoscopic choledochojejunostomy. They also removed the gallbladder. Am I looking at the unlisted code 47579 for the choledochojejunostomy? Thanks for any help.
