Forearm Muscle Release With Tendon Transfer

Ohio rates for HCPCS 25316

Releases the tightened muscles that bend the wrist and fingers by sliding their attachment down off the forearm bone, and also moves one or more tendons to a new attachment so that working muscles take over a lost function. It is used for a hand and wrist held permanently clenched, from conditions such as cerebral palsy or scarring after a severe forearm injury. The goal is a hand that can open, be kept clean, and be used for simple tasks.
