Big Toe Joint Cleanup For Stiffness (Cheilectomy)

Nevada rates for HCPCS 28289

This surgery treats a stiff, arthritic big toe joint, a condition called hallux rigidus, by shaving away bone spurs and reshaping the joint surface to restore motion and relieve pain. It preserves the joint itself rather than replacing or fusing it, and does not involve placement of any implant or fixation hardware. It's typically considered for earlier-stage joint stiffness before more extensive joint surgery becomes necessary.
