Forearm Amputation Through Both Bones

New Jersey rates for HCPCS 25900

This surgery removes the forearm through the radius and ulna, the two long bones between the wrist and elbow, typically due to severe trauma, infection, cancer, or a condition that has made the hand and forearm beyond saving. The surgeon shapes the remaining bone and soft tissue to create a stable, well-covered residual limb. This is the standard amputation, without the extra steps used for an immediate prosthetic fitting.
