Opening The Ureter To Place A Stent

Rhode Island rates for HCPCS 50605

Opens the ureter, the tube carrying urine from a kidney down to the bladder, during surgery so a stent can be placed inside it. The stent is a soft tube that holds the passage open and keeps urine draining while the ureter heals; the opening is then closed around it.
