Removal Of A Growth Inside The Nose

North Carolina rates for HCPCS 30117

This is the surgical removal of a growth or abnormal tissue from inside the nasal passage, done by working through the nostril with a scope or small instruments rather than cutting from outside the nose. It's used for growths such as polyps or other lesions that need more than a simple in-office removal. The tissue is typically sent to a laboratory to confirm what it is.
