CPT 34841: Fenestrated Endograft Repair of Visceral Aorta with Single Visceral Prosthesis
CPT code 34841 represents endovascular repair of the visceral aorta using a fenestrated endograft with placement of a single visceral artery prosthesis under radiological guidance. This complex vascular procedure preserves blood flow to the celiac, superior mesenteric, and renal arteries while excluding aneurysmal or diseased segments of the upper abdominal aorta. Nationally, such procedures are clinically significant due to their role in treating complex aortic pathology and their resource-intensive nature, often performed in tertiary care centers with hybrid operating rooms.
Key payers covered in this analysis include Aetna, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Cigna Health, UnitedHealthcare, and Medicare. Readers will find a concise overview of the clinical and billing context for CPT code 34841, including typical sites of service and service type. The publication summarizes available benchmarks where present, highlights relevant policy considerations that affect coverage and utilization, and provides clinical context to help coding, reimbursement, and administrative teams align documentation with billing requirements. Data not available in the input is noted where applicable, and readers will gain a national perspective useful for payer negotiations, hospital coding workflows, and clinical program planning.

Billing Code Overview
CPT code 34841 describes placement, under radiological guidance, of a fenestrated endograft to repair the visceral aorta (the upper abdominal aorta involving the celiac, superior mesenteric, and renal arteries). The procedure includes deployment of a fenestrated aortic stent graft designed with openings to preserve flow to visceral branch vessels and placement of a single visceral artery prosthesis as part of the repair.
