I'm totally stumped on this - information I'm finding directs me to 15734, but that doesn't seem correct. Operative procedure was pylorus sparing Whipple procedure w/vascularized round ligament flap to reinforce the pancreatic jejunal anastomosis. In the body of the report, the surgeon states" I then utilized the falciform ligament which I had divided at the umbilicus on its vascular pedicle from the liver. I wrapped the pancreatic jejunal anastomosis with this vascularized flap and was secured in place with interrupted Vicryl". Any help would be appreciated!!
