Bladder-Uterus Fistula Repair

Louisiana rates for HCPCS 51920

Repairs an abnormal opening between the bladder and the uterus that lets urine leak into the uterus and out through the vagina. The surgeon separates the two organs, removes the scarred edges, and closes the bladder so it holds urine again, leaving the uterus in place. The abnormal opening most often follows a cesarean delivery, pelvic surgery, or radiation treatment.
