Kidney Removal Through An Open Incision

Georgia rates for HCPCS 50220

Removes a kidney together with the upper part of the ureter that drains it, through an open incision in the flank or abdomen, sometimes requiring a section of rib to be taken out for access. It is the straightforward version, without clearing the surrounding lymph nodes.
