Pituitary Tumor Removal Through The Nose

Minnesota rates for HCPCS 62165

Removes a growth from the pituitary gland at the base of the brain using a telescope passed through the nostril and the air space behind it, so no incision is made in the scalp or skull. The telescope gives a wide, close view around corners inside a very small space. Growths of this gland can press on the nerves to the eyes or upset the body's hormone balance.
