Wide Removal Of An Upper Arm Or Elbow Tumor

Minnesota rates for HCPCS 24077

Extensive surgical removal of a tumor from the soft tissue of the upper arm or elbow area, taking a margin of surrounding healthy tissue along with the growth itself rather than just the visible lump. This wider approach is typically used when a tumor is cancerous or behaving aggressively, rather than for a straightforward benign growth, to reduce the chance it returns after removal.
