Removal of a Brain Fluid Shunt

Vermont rates for HCPCS 62256

Takes out an entire spinal fluid shunt — the valve and all of its tubing — without putting a new one in. It is done when the shunt is infected, blocked, or no longer needed. Small incisions are made along the path of the tubing so it can be withdrawn.
