Chest Lymph Node Removal With Another Operation

Delaware rates for HCPCS 38746

Removal of the lymph nodes in the chest, including those along the windpipe and in the space between the lungs, so they can be examined under a microscope. It is carried out during a larger chest operation rather than on its own, and is billed in addition to that main procedure. What the nodes show tells the care team whether disease has travelled beyond where it started.
