Removal Of A Tumor At The Top Of The Lung

Michigan rates for HCPCS 32503

Removes a tumor sitting at the very apex of the lung together with the part of the chest wall it has grown into. Tumors in this position invade the ribs, nerves and vessels crowded at the top of the chest, so those structures are taken out or divided as part of the operation. This version does not include rebuilding the chest wall afterwards.
