About 57307: Rectovaginal fistula repair with colostomy
Reports closure of a rectovaginal fistula with colostomy, combining repair of the abnormal connection and fecal diversion in one operative service.
This operation closes an abnormal connection between the rectum and vagina and includes creation of a colostomy to divert stool. The repair may use a vaginal or abdominal approach. It is performed in an operating room, typically by a surgeon experienced in pelvic or colorectal surgery, for patients whose fistula requires operative closure with diversion.
Report 57307 for the combined repair and colostomy, rather than treating the included diversion as a separate colostomy service. The operative report should identify the fistula, describe the repair and approach, and document the colostomy. The code has a 90-day global period, including the day-before preoperative visit and related postoperative care. When other procedures are performed in the same session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and the others are subject to the standard 50% multiple-procedure reduction. Modifier 50 is not appropriate for this service. Assistant-at-surgery payment may be available; co-surgeon payment requires supporting documentation. Team surgery is not permitted.
