Removal Of A Larger Growth Under Hip Or Pelvic Skin

South Dakota rates for HCPCS 27043

A soft-tissue growth in the fat layer just beneath the skin over the hip or pelvic region is cut out with a margin of normal tissue, and the wound is closed. This covers the larger growths in that layer, which need a wider removal than a small lump does; the growth stays above the muscle rather than sitting inside it. The tissue that comes out is normally sent to a laboratory to be examined and checked for cancer.
