A 36-yeаr-оld mаle suffered bаck pain after heavy lifting and was fоund tо have bilateral disc herniation. The patient was placed prone and general anesthesia given. Incision was then made with a 10-blade knife and dissection was carried downward through the thick adipose tissue to the fascia in a subperiosteal plane. The paraspinous muscles were reflected off L5 and S1. A laminotomy was drilled with the Midas Tex AMB on the inferior end of L5. The thecal sac was retracted medially. The microscope was brought in, direct with microdissection there was a massive disk herniation on the right side underneath the nerve root as well as the left. The disc was incised with an 11-blade knife and was cleaned out with a series of straight and angled curettes and rongeurs. The disc was intertwined with the posterior longitudinal ligament. The space was cleaned out, the foramina were checked and no further compression was found on any of the neural elements. What CPT® codes are reported for this procedure?
