Shunt Surgery For A Persistent Painful Erection

Vermont rates for HCPCS 54430

Creates a channel between the two erection chambers of the penis and the spongy tissue that surrounds the urine channel, so trapped blood can drain away and a prolonged, painful erection can subside. It is done when an erection lasting many hours has not settled with medicine or with drainage by needle. Relieving it promptly protects the tissue from lasting damage.
