Exploration For Undescended Testicle

California rates for HCPCS 54550

This procedure explores the groin or scrotal area to locate and evaluate a testicle that has not moved down into its normal position. The surgeon examines the undescended testicle and surrounding tissue, often to determine whether it can be brought down and secured in the scrotum. It is typically performed in infants or young children, though it can be done at other ages.
