Tongue Lesion Removal With Tissue Flap Closure

Alaska rates for HCPCS 41114

This removes an abnormal growth or lesion from the tongue and closes the resulting wound using a flap of nearby tongue tissue rather than simply stitching the edges together. Using a local flap helps preserve the tongue's shape and function when the area removed is too large to close directly. It's typically performed under anesthesia by an oral or head and neck surgeon.
