I am wondering if there is a CPT code for the resection of fractured facets. This is a OR return post lumbar decompressive laminectomy. However during this procedure, no laminectomy/laminotomy was performed, and no rods were placed for stabilization of the fracture. I was looking at 22325, but I am hesitant because it looks like rods or hooks are placed above and below the injury with this CPT code. A dural repair was also performed during this procedure.

Any thoughts are greatly appreciated!
