R138 – Preparation of microvascular recipient site for free toe or finger transplant
OHIP Integumentary System Surgical Procedures Code — INTEGUMENTARY SYSTEM SURGICAL PROCEDURES · Schedule of Benefits
Preparation of a microvascular recipient site for a free toe or finger transplant. This surgical procedure is a component of a multi-stage microvascular reconstruction. This service is often performed in conjunction with other procedures such as R137 (Elevation of free toe or finger and closure of defect) and R139 (Transplantation of free island toe or finger with microvascular anastomosis(es) and tendon nerve and bone repair). A variation, R141, is used when this preparation immediately follows ablative surgery where recipient vessels are in the site of the ablation. Payment for assistant (<suffix>B</suffix>) and anaesthesia (<suffix>C</suffix>) services is based on a unit system as detailed in the General Preamble (see - for assistants, and - for anaesthesia).
