Partial Colon Removal With Stoma And Second Opening

Idaho rates for HCPCS 44144

Removes a diseased section of the colon and brings both cut ends out through the abdominal wall — one as a stoma that empties into a bag, the other as a small opening draining the segment left beyond it. The bowel is deliberately not rejoined at this operation, leaving that to a later one.
