Pancreas Drainage Into The Small Intestine

Colorado rates for HCPCS 48548

Opens the main drainage channel of the pancreas along its length and sews a loop of small intestine to it side by side, so digestive juices trapped behind a blockage can escape freely. It is done for long-standing pancreatitis with a widened, obstructed duct, mainly to relieve pain.
