Rod Fixation Of A Broken Thigh Bone

South Dakota rates for HCPCS 27506

Repairs a broken thigh bone by passing a metal rod down the hollow center of the bone to line the pieces up and hold them while they heal. Screws are usually passed through the bone into the rod near each end to stop the pieces turning or shortening. This method often lets weight be taken on the leg sooner than other approaches.
