Patient is status post corrective intramedullary osteotomy of proximal femur for realignment for a bowing deformity. Now requires a THR for OA and developmental dysplasia. While the discription for 27132 THR is conversion of previous HIP surgery to total hip, I have seen that the intent of 27132 in regards to previous surgery covers any previous SURGERY (hip not being specified), where a skin incision was made. Would 27132 be appropriate under these circumstances?
