Drainage of Deep Rectal-Area Abscess

Wyoming rates for HCPCS 46040

A surgeon makes an incision to open and drain a pocket of infection (abscess) located in the deep tissue next to the rectum. The area is opened so pus can drain out, which relieves pain and pressure and lets the infection heal. This is a more involved procedure than draining a superficial abscess near the anus, since the infection sits deeper in the tissue.
