Implanted Port And Line In A Young Child

Missouri rates for HCPCS 36570

A long, thin catheter is placed into a vein in a limb, in the arm or in the leg depending on which vein suits the child, and threaded up so its tip sits in a large vein near the heart. It is connected to a small chamber tucked under the skin, which a needle can reach through the skin for repeated treatments. This version is for a child under five, and nothing protrudes from the body between treatments.
