Removal Of A Deep Leg Or Ankle Tumor

Montana rates for HCPCS 27615

This surgery removes a soft-tissue tumor from the lower leg or ankle area using a wider margin of surrounding healthy tissue, a more extensive approach typically used when the growth may be cancerous. It is reserved for a smaller tumor and is more involved than simply removing a lump, because it aims to take out the growth along with a margin of normal tissue to reduce the chance it returns. The area is closed or reconstructed afterward depending on how much tissue was removed.
