Drainage Shunt For A Persistent Erection

Connecticut rates for HCPCS 54420

Emergency surgery for priapism, an erection that will not go down and becomes painful. A connection is created between the erectile chambers of the penis and a vein in the leg, so the trapped blood can drain away and normal circulation returns. Acting quickly matters, because blood that stays trapped starves the tissue of oxygen and can cause lasting damage.
