Cystic Duct Reattachment Procedure Overview
Procedures in this group involve reattachment of the cystic duct within the hepatobiliary system and pancreas, restoring continuity between the gallbladder or biliary tree and its normal anatomic location. These reattachment operations typically address transection, avulsion, or surgical separation of the cystic duct. Accurate coding of these procedures in the inpatient setting is important because it documents the operative work performed and supports appropriate case mix assignment and reimbursement.
