There are too many surgeries for the ICD9 to have a status post code for each of them, so V45.89 can be used for status postoperative NEC. It's what I use (when there isn't a specific status post code for the surgery we performed) if the patient isn't having issues and our Doc's are just rounding status post surgery.
As per ICD guideline, 'status post' indicate that 'a patient is either a carrier of a disease or has the sequelae or residual of a past disease or condition & also status code is distinct from a history code. The history code indicates that the patient no longer has the condition'. Owing to this, a history code cannot be choosen and so a direct code should be taken. Eg: CAD s/p CABG implies 414.00 and V45.81.

Your doctor may recommend abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) repair to treat an aneurysm. An aneurysm is a bulging, weak spot in the aorta that may be at risk for rupturing. In this case, the aneurysm is in part of the aorta that is in the abdomen. Repair of an AAA may be done in one of two ways:
Open repair. For this surgery, your doctor makes a large incision in the abdomen to expose the aorta. Once he or she has opened the abdomen, a graft can be used to repair the aneurysm. Open repair remains the standard procedure for an abdominal aortic aneurysm repair. Endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR).
This means it is done without a large incision. Instead, the doctor makes a small incision in the groin. He or she will insert special instruments through a catheter in an artery in the groin and thread them up to the aneurysm. At the aneurysm, your doctor will place the stent and graft to support the aneurysm.
Size of aneurysm greater than 5 centimeters in diameter (about 2 inches) Growth rate of aneurysm of more than 0.5 centimeter (about 0.2 inch) over 1 year. When risk of rupture outweighs the risk of surgery. Emergency life-threatening bleeding. There may be other reasons for your doctor to advise an AAA repair.
The anesthesiologist will monitor your heart rate, blood pressure, breathing, and oxygen level during the surgery. Once you are sedated, your doctor will insert a breathing tube through your throat into your lungs and connect you to a ventilator. This will breathe for you during the surgery.
You may be told to stop these medicines before the procedure. Tell your doctor if you are pregnant or think you might be. Tell your doctor if you are sensitive to or are allergic to any medicines, latex, iodine, tape, contrast dyes, and anesthetic agents (local or general).
