Open Repair of a Break at the Ankle End of the Lower Leg

Maine rates for HCPCS 27826

Surgery that opens the lower leg just above the ankle to line up a break that runs into the weight-bearing surface of the joint, holding the pieces with plates and screws. Restoring the joint surface as smoothly as possible is the aim, because leftover steps or gaps lead to early arthritis. Swelling often has to settle before the operation can be done safely.
