Endoscopic paracolostomy repair

My surgeon did a endoscopic cholecystectomy with endoscopic repair of paracolostomy hernia with mesh and repair of umbilical hernia with mesh.
Is there a code for the endoscopic paracolostomy repair?

There is if doing a revision of colostomy (44346) but it is a separate procedure. Modifier 59 if not bundled by CCI edits.

44346 is the only code I could find, however, this is not laparoscopic?
