Laparoscopic Pyeloplasty (Kidney Drain Repair)

Vermont rates for HCPCS 50544

Keyhole surgery to repair the narrowed junction where the kidney empties into the ureter, the tube carrying urine down to the bladder. Working through several small cuts in the abdomen with a camera and long instruments, the surgeon removes or reshapes the blocked segment and rejoins the healthy ends. It relieves the back-pressure that causes pain, infection and kidney damage.
