Removal Of An Embedded Object Deep In The Pelvis Or Hip

Nebraska rates for HCPCS 27087

This procedure removes a foreign object that has become lodged deep within the muscle tissue of the pelvis or hip area, requiring the surgeon to work through the muscle layer to reach and remove it. It is used when an object, such as a piece of shrapnel, glass, or other material from an injury, cannot be reached with a shallow procedure. The incision and approach depend on where within the deep tissue the object is located.
