CPT® 33533, Under Arterial Grafting for Coronary Artery Bypass. The Current Procedural Terminology (CPT®) code 33533 as maintained by American Medical Association, is a medical procedural code under the range - Arterial Grafting for Coronary Artery Bypass.
Your doctor attaches one end of the graft above the blockage and the other end below the blockage. Blood bypasses the blockage by going through the new graft to reach the heart muscle. This is called coronary artery bypass surgery.

You may hear bypass surgery referred to by different names. Coronary artery bypass graft surgery, or CABG (pronounced “cabbage”), is one common term. This term accurately describes exactly what the surgery accomplishes: grafting (or sewing) a new blood vessel to a heart artery to re-route blood flow around a blockage.Dec 2, 2014
Coronary bypass surgery is a procedure that restores blood flow to your heart muscle by diverting the flow of blood around a section of a blocked artery in your heart. Coronary bypass surgery redirects blood around a section of a blocked or partially blocked artery in your heart.
All comparisons of CABG to PCI or medical therapy that demonstrate survival effects with CABG also demonstrate infarct reduction. Thus, CABG may differ from PCI by providing “surgical collateralization,” prolonging life by preventing myocardial infarctions.

The quintuple bypass is the most intricate heart bypass surgery and includes all five of the major arteries feeding the heart.
A quintuple bypass requires more vessels than any other procedure, so multiple sites, including the arm, left internal mammary artery (LIMA), and other vessels may be used.Aug 30, 2021
The major blood vessels connected to your heart are the aorta, the superior vena cava, the inferior vena cava, the pulmonary artery (which takes oxygen-poor blood from the heart to the lungs where it is oxygenated), the pulmonary veins (which bring oxygen-rich blood from the lungs to the heart), and the coronary ...Feb 4, 2021
