Question: North Carolina Subscriber Answer: There are two procedures here -- 1) revision of the tibial tray, and 2) reconstruction of the quadriceps mechanism. You report 27486 (Revision of total knee arthroplasty, with or without allograft; 1 component) -52 (Reduced services...) for the total knee replacement and 27386 (Suture of quadriceps or hamstring muscle rupture; secondary reconstruction, including fascial or tendon graft) for the quadriceps reconstruction. You need to determine if the quadriceps reconstruction is done using an autograft or allograft. Code 27386 is good to report an autograft. Sometimes, your surgeon may do an allograft reconstruction where the entire extensor mechanism including patella and quadriceps tendons are replaced using an allograft with bone block at either end. For that procedure, you may report unlisted code 27599 (Unlisted procedure, femur or knee).
