Ureteral Stent Removal By Snare, Without A Scope

California rates for HCPCS 50386

Removes a stent sitting inside the ureter by passing a fine snare up through the urethra to catch the stent and withdraw it, with no viewing scope used. X-ray imaging guides the snare and confirms the stent has been captured and has come out whole. It is done once the stent has served its purpose after stone treatment, surgery or a spell of blockage.
