A 59-year-old male presented with DJD and spondylolisthesis at
T4-T5. The patient is placed prone on the operating table, and
after induction of general anesthesia, the lower back was sterilely
prepped and draped. One incision was made over T2-T6. This was
confirmed with a probe under fluoroscopy. Laminectomies were done
at T4 and T5 with facetectomies to relieve pressure to the nerve
roots. Allograft was packed in the gutters from T2-T6 for
arthrodesis. Pedicle screws were placed at T2, T3, and T4. The
construct was copiously irrigated and muscle; fascia and skin were
closed in layers. Select the procedure codes for this
scenario.
