How would you code the transcatheter stenting of the homograft with stensois from the right ventricle to the main pulmonary artery for a patient with TOF? The cath report describes the stent placement as being in the MPA. Can I use CPT code 37205 or should I use the unilsted code 93799?

I believe you should use 37205-75960. I think there is a medlearn article stating this, I once read. I will see if I can find it.
 
Thanks so much for your reply and thank you for looking for the supporting documentation for the code choice. I look forward to reading the article if you can find it. Bams
