Wrist Flexor Tendon Repair, Delayed, With Graft

Minnesota rates for HCPCS 25265

This is a hand and wrist surgery to repair a tendon that helps bend the wrist or fingers, performed some time after the original injury rather than immediately. Because the tendon ends can no longer be brought together directly, the surgeon bridges the gap with a piece of graft tissue to reconnect them. It is used when enough of the original tendon is missing or retracted that a direct repair isn't possible despite the delay.
