Closure Of An Anal Fistula Using A Plug

New Mexico rates for HCPCS 46707

This procedure closes an anal fistula, an abnormal tunnel that has formed between the inside of the anal canal and the skin near the anus, by inserting a biological plug material into the tract. The plug fills and seals the tunnel, allowing the body to heal around it, without cutting the tract open. It offers an alternative to procedures that require cutting through the fistula tract directly.
