Repair of a Urethral Injury

Colorado rates for HCPCS 53502

This procedure surgically repairs a tear or wound in the urethra, the tube that carries urine out of the body, by suturing the injured tissue back together. It is typically needed after trauma, such as a pelvic injury or a medical procedure that damaged the urethra, and aims to restore a normal, leak-free channel for urine. A temporary catheter is usually left in place afterward to allow the repair to heal.
