* {{Discussion}}: In CCI when an object like those listed above, including a mass or tumor is extracted, the location where the extraction has occured is documented but the actual type of object or mass which is extracted is not documented at all.

***'''vegectomy'''- procedure done using angiovac for endocarditis, combine with the appropriate valve
***'''removal of thrombus or embolism from within a blood vessel'''  For an EVT, combine with [[(T) Intracranial Vessels]] for [[Cerebral infarction/stroke due to embolism]] or [[Cerebral infarction/stroke, NOS]] there is no need to code the cerebral angiogram as it is part of the procedure, however, if a patient goes for an EVT and a thrombectomy is not done then you would only code the cerebral angiogram.
**D&C for normal uterine tissue, combine with [[(T) Uterus and Surrounding Structures]], if the tissue is necrotic see [[Debridement]]
'''Excludes: '''
* Removal of cancerous or other abnormal tissue, a mass or tumor, instead use one of these (the ICD10 codes will indicate what was removed):
**[[Excision, Resection]]
* [[Removal of Foreign Body]])
