Knee Arthroscopy for Widespread Lining Removal

Kansas rates for HCPCS 29876

Through small cuts around the knee, a camera and fine instruments are used to strip inflamed joint lining out of more than one separate compartment of the joint. It is the more extensive clear-out, dealing with lining across the knee rather than in a single small area. It is done when persistent inflammation causes swelling, catching and pain that has not settled with medication or injections.
