Freeing Multiple Tendons in the Lower Leg

Montana rates for HCPCS 27681

Frees more than one tendon in the lower leg or ankle from the scar tissue and adhesions holding it down, so the tendons can glide again and the ankle and toes move more freely. Scarring like this usually follows an injury, an infection, or earlier surgery. The tendons themselves are not cut or reattached — they are only released.
