Removal Of Bony Growth, Mid-Back Spine

North Carolina rates for HCPCS 22101

This service surgically removes part of a bony structure of a vertebra in the mid-back (thoracic spine) - such as the bony arch or a joint surface - to treat a growth or lesion confined to that structure. The main body of the vertebra is left in place. It is used to treat a bone abnormality localized to a specific vertebra rather than a widespread spinal condition.
