Removal Of A Bone Cyst Or Benign Tumor From A Finger Bone

West Virginia rates for HCPCS 26210

This procedure surgically scrapes out or removes a fluid-filled cyst or noncancerous growth from inside one of the finger bones. The surgeon opens a small window into the bone to access and clear out the abnormal tissue, without using a bone graft to fill the resulting space. It is used specifically for growths located in a finger bone rather than the longer hand bones.
