what CPT code is appropriate for return to OR for Ex. Laparotomy with evacuation of Hemoperitoneum with ligation of apparent bleeder following TAH?
The pt was brought to the OR day after TAH. Skin incision was re-opened as well as the subcutaneous and fascial incisions. The peritoneum was opened. Blood and clot was evacuated. Bowel was meticulously dissected superiorly and the rest of blood and clot evacuated.
