Can anyone tell me, if a pyloroplasty is done in conjunction with a partial esophagectomy and we bill CPT code 43117, should the pyloroplasty be reported separately? The description of CPT code 43117 states, "partial esophagectomy, distal two-thirds, with thoracotomy and separate abdominal incision, with or without proximal gastrectomy; with thoracic esophagogastrostomy, with or without pyloroplasty."
I am also wondering the same about CPT code 43107, it also states, "with or without pyloroplasty."
