Removal of Diseased Bone From the Fibula

Nebraska rates for HCPCS 27641

Cuts away a diseased or infected section of the fibula, the slender outer bone of the lower leg, by shaving it down, hollowing it out, or removing a length of it. It is most often done for a bone infection that antibiotics alone have not cleared, because dead bone keeps the infection going. Taking the bad bone out gives the healthy tissue around it a chance to heal.
