Other operations on blood vessels and additional information about operations on blood vessels: Inspection of a blood vessel operation: Replacement of a vascular transplant: In one vascular implant

You have again been treated for a blood vessel, after you previously had a blood vessel replaced at that location.

The new treatment involved replacing the replacement blood vessel. You previously had one of your body’s own blood vessels as a replacement vessel. You have now had a synthetic blood vessel implanted there instead of this.

Additional indicator

If necessary, additional letters are appended to OPS codes to indicate which side of the body is affected.

  • L: Left
  • R: Right
  • B: Both sides

Further information

Note

Your doctor will assist you with any health-related questions and explain the OPS code to you in a direct consultation if necessary.
