Repair Of A Sliding Groin Hernia

North Dakota rates for HCPCS 49525

Repairs a groin hernia in which part of an internal organ, such as the bowel or bladder, itself forms part of the wall of the hernia sac rather than simply sitting inside it. That makes the repair more delicate, because the organ has to be freed and returned safely before the weak spot in the groin is closed.
