Drainage Procedure For A Prolonged Erection

California rates for HCPCS 54435

Creates a small channel between the erectile chambers of the penis and the head of the penis so that trapped blood can drain and a prolonged, painful erection can subside. It is done using a needle, punch, or small cutting instrument passed through the head of the penis, usually with local or regional numbing. Prompt treatment matters because an erection lasting many hours can permanently damage the erectile tissue.
