Wiki Allograft & autograft

[trvlingal]

My doc is doing a combination allograft and autograft to the left distal femur. Autograft has been harvested from the left iliac crest to the left femur. This is the first one I
have ever had like this. Any idea of the code/codes? Thanks.

It depends on the code being used. Some codes state "with allo or auto graft", and will tell you if obtaining the (auto)graft is included.
