Endovascular repair of iliac artery bifurcation (eg, aneurysm, pseudoaneurysm, arteriovenous malformation, trauma) using bifurcated endoprosthesis from the common iliac artery into both the external and internal iliac artery, unilateral; radiological supervision and interpretation

The procedure described by CPT® Code 0255T involves the endovascular repair of the iliac artery bifurcation, which may be necessitated by various conditions such as an aneurysm, pseudoaneurysm, arteriovenous malformation, or trauma. This intervention utilizes a bifurcated endoprosthesis, which is a specialized graft designed to restore normal blood flow and structural integrity to the affected arteries. The procedure is performed unilaterally, meaning it is conducted on one side of the body, specifically from the common iliac artery into both the external and internal iliac arteries. Radiological supervision and interpretation are integral components of this procedure, ensuring that the placement of the endoprosthesis is accurately guided and monitored through imaging techniques. This meticulous approach is essential for achieving optimal outcomes and minimizing complications associated with vascular repairs.
