Open Chest Clearing Of Material From The Chest Cavity

Vermont rates for HCPCS 32150

Opens the chest between the ribs to remove an object, or thick fibrous deposits, from the space between the lung and the chest wall. Such deposits form when infection or bleeding in the chest organizes into sticky material that walls fluid off into separate pockets. Clearing the space drains the trapped fluid and lets the lung expand again.
