Re: coronary stent insertion. Due to many other stent procedures used in renal, neurosurgery and urology, could we catch this trend by capturing these all under "other stents"?FLindell 13:18, 2 June 2008 (CDT)
I think at this point we need to be careful because not all stents are vascular. We will be reassessing the coding more when we cover this in our task group. --LKolesar 14:00, 2 June 2008 (CDT)
