Partial Outer Ear Removal With Simple Repair

Washington, DC rates for HCPCS 69110

This surgery removes part of the outer ear, the visible, cartilage-supported structure on the side of the head, along with a simple repair of the resulting wound. It is most often performed to remove a skin cancer or other lesion that can be treated by taking out a limited area of tissue rather than the entire ear. The wound is typically closed directly as part of the same procedure rather than requiring a separate reconstructive surgery.
