Removal Of A Hand Bone Cyst With Bone Grafting

New Jersey rates for HCPCS 26205

This surgery removes a cyst or benign tumor from a bone in the hand and fills the resulting space with bone graft material taken from elsewhere in the patient's body. The graft helps the bone heal and regain its strength after the growth is removed. It is used when the cyst or tumor has weakened the bone enough that reinforcement is needed.
