Staged Transfer Of A Tissue Flap

Wisconsin rates for HCPCS 15650

This is a step in a multi-stage reconstructive technique in which a flap of skin and tissue, still partly connected to its original blood supply, is gradually moved to a distant part of the body. During this stage, part of the flap's original attachment is cut and the tissue is further advanced or inset at its new location. It's used in complex reconstructive surgery when a flap can't be moved to its final destination in a single operation.
