Deep Biopsy of Hip or Pelvic Soft Tissue

South Carolina rates for HCPCS 27041

Takes a sample of soft tissue from the hip or pelvic area from beneath the tough fibrous sheet covering the muscles — within or under the muscle layer, not just under the skin. Reaching that depth takes an incision and careful dissection past nerves and blood vessels. The sample goes to a laboratory to establish whether a mass is a tumor, an infection, or something else.
