*Use this for removal of something "natural" (as opposed to [[Removal of Foreign Body]]).

*Use this for removal of something "natural" (as opposed to [[Removal of Foreign Body]]) from a part of the body.

***'''thrombectomy'''

***'''removal of thrombus or embolism from within a blood vessel'''

*However, when we're talking about removal of cancerous or other abnormal tissue, instead use one of these:

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.

*AG REPLY --- for some things it'll be quite clear, e.g. extraction of a tooth. HOWEVER, for resection/removal of a tumor or mass, "extraction" is the wrong item in CCI.
