Open Surgery For Tennis Or Golfer's Elbow

Nationwide rates for HCPCS 24358

Treats long-standing pain at the side of the elbow that has not settled with rest, physiotherapy or injections. Through an incision over the painful bony bump, the surgeon clears away the worn-out tendon tissue where it attaches and smooths any roughened bone underneath, so healthy tissue can heal in. It is done at either the outer or the inner side of the elbow, depending on where the problem is.
