Pituitary Tumor Removal Through the Nose

Rhode Island rates for HCPCS 61548

Removal of the pituitary gland or a growth arising from it, reached along the nasal passage and the sinus behind it rather than by opening the skull. Instruments are passed through the nose to the base of the brain where the gland sits, so there is no incision on the head. This is the straightforward version, done without computer navigation guidance.
