Reconstruction For A Kneecap That Keeps Slipping

Nebraska rates for HCPCS 27420

Rebuilds the structures that hold the kneecap in its groove for someone whose kneecap slips out of place again and again. The surgeon tightens or reroutes the soft tissue that steadies the kneecap, and may move where the kneecap tendon attaches, so the kneecap tracks in line as the knee bends. Bracing and physical therapy follow while everything heals.
