Removal Of Scar Tissue Inside The Nose

Missouri rates for HCPCS 30560

This procedure removes scar tissue (adhesions) that has formed inside the nasal passages, often as a result of prior nasal surgery, injury, or severe inflammation, and that is causing the nasal walls to stick together. Separating the adhesions restores normal airflow and can relieve nasal blockage. It's typically done through the nostril with no external incision.
