I have a case that I need an opinion on.
The procedure states left tibial thrombectomy, open exposure tibial arterial system. Left tibial artery bypass repair with primary anastomosis S/P transecting posterior tibial artery.
This patient was involved in a motorcycle accident an d fx their tibia. Our dr is going in to control the bleeding and he transected it.
Would you bill a 34203 and a 35256 or something completely different?

Thanks,
