Urethral Reconstruction, Longer Segment

Louisiana rates for HCPCS 54324

This is a surgical repair used when the opening where urine exits the penis is not in its usual position, a condition present from birth. It reconstructs the urinary channel in a case where the segment needing repair is longer, which typically calls for a more extensive rebuilding of the passage. It is completed in a single operation rather than as part of a multi-stage approach.
