Can anyone help me with a code? A TLH was performed and then followed by a laparoscopic Burch urethropexy? Its the Burch that Im having trouble with. There are open Burch codes, or Burch with a TAH but not with a TLH.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
 
Anyone have an update on this topic, if mesh was used during a laparoscopic burch urethopexy, is it still 51990?
 
Burch procedure

If this was done Laparoscopically as well you can use the 51990, but if they used a sling then I would use the 51992.
There is not an additional code for mesh unless it is for the pelvic floor and done by vaginal approach.

;)
