Great Toe Transfer With Its Own Blood Supply

Oregon rates for HCPCS 20973

Lifts the great toe together with the skin of the neighbouring web space, along with its artery, vein, and nerve, and transfers it to another part of the body, most often the hand to build a working thumb. The blood vessels are reconnected under a microscope so the transferred tissue stays alive in its new position. It is a long operation carried out by a specialist microsurgical team.
