Removal of a Seizure-Producing Area of Brain

Connecticut rates for HCPCS 61534

Brain surgery in which a section of the skull is lifted so the surgeon can remove the specific area of brain tissue where seizures start. Only that focus is taken out, rather than a whole lobe, which preserves more of the surrounding brain. The section of skull is replaced at the end of the operation.
