Q: A patient sustains bilateral lacerations to the internal iliac arteries. What is the correct code for this injury? Jul 1, 2009 | Spine | 0 comments A: The bilateral code in the AIS dictionary refers specifically to the common iliac artery. In this case the two internal iliac artery injuries would be coded separately, using 520604.3 for the left and the right internal iliac arteries.
