The code for radical cervical lymphadenectomy is typically designated as 38724 in the Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) coding system. This procedure involves the surgical removal of lymph nodes in the neck, often performed in conjunction with the treatment of head and neck cancers. It's important to verify coding with the latest guidelines, as codes may be updated or vary by region.
A limited or modified lymphadenectomy removes only some of the lymph nodes in the area around a tumor; a total or radical lymphadenectomy removes all of the lymph nodes in the area.
