The vascular system includes arteries, veins and capillaries (which connect arteries and veins). An acquired arteriovenous fistula (AV fistula) is a condition where there is an abnormal connection between an artery and a vein. Normally, blood flows from arteries into capillaries and then into veins.
An AV fistula is a connection, made by a vascular surgeon, of an artery to a vein. Arteries carry blood from the heart to the body, while veins carry blood from the body back to the heart. Vascular surgeons specialize in blood vessel surgery. The surgeon usually places an AV fistula in the forearm or upper arm.
AV fistula can be placed in upper arm or forearm, thigh or chest. So, the new CPT code 36901 is the main procedure code, used for taking access in AV fistula.
