Sling Operation For Stress Incontinence

Arizona rates for HCPCS 57288

Places a supportive strip beneath the urethra — the tube that carries urine out of the body — to stop leaking when a person coughs, laughs, sneezes or exercises. The strip acts as a hammock so the urethra stays closed under sudden pressure, and it may be made of synthetic mesh or of the patient's own tissue. It is usually done through a small incision in the vagina.
