Right Upper Extremity Resection Procedure Overview

This procedure group covers resections performed on lymphatic structures of the right upper extremity within the lymphatic and hemic systems. Procedures involve cutting out or off all of a body part, specifically lymphatic tissue in the right arm and associated regional lymphatics. Accurate coding of these resections is important for inpatient reimbursement because it documents the definitive removal procedure and supports appropriate case mix assignment.

Typical Clinical Scenarios

An elderly patient with a history of metastatic breast cancer presents with an enlarging, painful axillary mass and signs of local skin breakdown and recurrent infection despite antibiotics; imaging and biopsy confirm a necrotic lymph node conglomerate confined to the right upper extremity lymphatic chain. Because the entire affected lymphatic tissue is nonviable and a definitive resection is required to control infection and pain during the inpatient stay, a complete removal of the right upper extremity lymphatic tissue is performed via an open approach for adequate exposure and control. Typical codes: 07T30ZZ
A middle-aged patient with chronic, therapy-resistant lymphedema of the right arm after multiple prior oncologic surgeries undergoes planned inpatient surgery when symptoms progress to recurrent cellulitis and functional impairment; intraoperative assessment identifies extensive fibrotic lymphatic tissue requiring excision. To remove the diseased lymphatic tissue causing recurrent infections and swelling, a percutaneous endoscopic resection of the right upper extremity lymphatic structures is performed during the elective inpatient admission. Typical codes: 07T34ZZ
A younger adult presents emergently with acute hemorrhage and rapidly expanding hematoma of the right upper extremity lymphatic basin after blunt trauma, compromising neurovascular structures and failing bedside control. The patient is taken to the operating room for definitive management, and complete resection of the damaged right upper extremity lymphatic tissue is performed via an open approach to control bleeding and remove the injured lymphatic structures. Typical codes: 07T30ZZ
