Need help with the following. This is a unplanned return trip to the operating room one day after a TLH for bleeding from the trocar sites

What would this be coded as?

Dx laparoscopy converted to laparotomy
ligation of bleeding vessels, electrocauterization of bleeding vessels
had to place a flow seal across the right pelvic sidewall to the left pelvic sidewall.


Thanks
