What is the best CPT code for this

It involves a simple mastoidectomy, then removal of bone from the sigmoid sinus (large vein) in the mastoid, compression of it with bone chips, then covering this reconstruction with bone cement. The objective is to diminish, but not eliminate, blood flow through this vein to correct pulsatile tinnitus.
