Destruction Of A Small Skin Cancer, Body Or Limbs

Maryland rates for HCPCS 17261

This is a procedure that destroys a cancerous skin lesion on the trunk, arms, or legs, using a method such as scraping, freezing, burning, or laser rather than cutting it out with a scalpel. It's used for smaller lesions. It is chosen when the lesion type and location make destruction an appropriate treatment instead of surgical excision.
