Pin Fixation Of A Dislocated Finger Knuckle

North Carolina rates for HCPCS 26706

This procedure treats a dislocated metacarpophalangeal joint, the large knuckle where a finger meets the hand, by placing thin pins through the skin to hold the joint in its corrected position. It is used for a single dislocated joint after it has been realigned. This approach avoids a full open incision over the joint.
