Extensive Removal Of A Larger Foot Soft Tissue Tumor

Alabama rates for HCPCS 28047

This surgery removes a soft-tissue tumor, such as a sarcoma, from the foot or toe using a wide, extensive surgical margin around the growth to reduce the chance it will return. It's the version used for a larger tumor, requiring more extensive tissue removal than the version used for a smaller growth. Because it's more extensive, it can involve a bigger incision and a more involved recovery than a straightforward, smaller excision.
