Surgical Closure Of A Stomach Tube Opening

Mississippi rates for HCPCS 43870

Closes the passage between the stomach and the skin left behind after a feeding tube is no longer needed and the track has not sealed on its own. The surgeon frees the track, closes the hole in the stomach wall with stitches, then closes the layers of the abdominal wall and skin over it. It is done when the opening keeps leaking stomach contents onto the skin.
