Anal Fissure Surgery (Sphincterotomy)
HCPCS 46080
Sphincterotomy, anal, division of sphincter (separate procedure)
AI EXPLANATION: Anal fissure surgery, medically referred to as a lateral internal sphincterotomy, is an outpatient procedure performed to help heal a persistent tear in the tissue lining the anus. During the operation, a surgeon makes a precise, small cut in the internal anal sphincter muscle. Releasing this tension reduces pressure within the anal canal, which relieves pain and improves blood flow so the fissure can naturally heal.
