Removal Of A Wrist Ganglion Cyst

Louisiana rates for HCPCS 25111

Surgery to remove a ganglion cyst from the wrist — a firm, fluid-filled lump that grows out of a joint or a tendon lining. The surgeon opens the skin over the lump and takes out the cyst together with its stalk and a small cuff of the lining it grew from, which lowers the chance of it returning. This covers a first removal rather than surgery for one that has come back.
