Open Repair Of A Torn Knee Cartilage Pad

Colorado rates for HCPCS 27403

Opens the knee joint through an incision so a torn meniscus — the C-shaped cartilage pad that cushions the knee — can be stitched back together. Repairing the tear keeps the cushion in place instead of trimming the torn part away. It is done for tears in a part of the meniscus with enough blood supply to heal.
