Repair of a Returning Femoral Hernia

Texas rates for HCPCS 49555

Repairs a femoral hernia — a bulge of tissue pushing through a weak point in the groin just below the crease, close to the large vessels running down to the leg — that has come back after an earlier repair. The contents are returned inside and the gap is closed and reinforced. Scarring from the first operation makes the layers harder to identify and the work slower.
