| *Excision and resection refer to work done on an '''internal''' body part. If it's an external body part consider instead use of '''[[Amputation]]'''.
| | <noinclude> |
| * If any amount of reconstruction was done as part of a resection,''' code only [[Excision with Reconstruction, Replacement]]'''
| | This template puts the guidelines for [[:Category:Excision | excisions]] into the relevant procedures. |
| **'''Example''': a radical breast resection accompanied by a breast reconstruction, only code '''[[Excision with Reconstruction, Replacement]]'''
| | |
| * Otherwise the distinction is whether the extent of the excision, usually indicated in the operative note written by the surgeon:
| | To use: |
| **[[Excision, Resection, partial]] indicates that only part of the body part was removed -- e.g. partial thyroidectomy
| | <pre>{{CCI Guideline Excisions}}</pre> |
| **[[Excision, Resection, total]] indicates ALL of the body part was removed -- e.g. total gastrectomy
| | |
| **[[Excision, Resection, radical]] indicates that not only was all of the body part removed, but adjacent structures such as lymph nodes, adjacent soft tissue structures were also removed.
| |
| *** '''Examples''': radical neck dissection, radical mastectomy.

| *Example:
| | [[Category:CCI wiki infrastructure]] |
| **Breast lumpectomy is a [[Excision, Resection, partial]];
| |
| **simple mastectomy is a [[Excision, Resection, total]];
| |
| **mastectomy with lymph node dissection is usually considered as a [[Excision, Resection, radical]]
