DX - Sinus tarsi impingement & chronic tenosynovitis of peroneal tendons

Gains access to sinus tarsi and performs broad debridement of thickened scar tissue and chronic torn tissues. The peroneal sheath was bloated, thick and stretched out. Opened the retinaculum and there was a large egress of tissue and chronic large scale thickening of chronic tenosynovitis. The tenosynovitis was debrided as well as a low-lying peroneal brevis muscle. Relocated the peroneal tendons and performed a peroneal retinaculum reconstruction.

Any help is appreciated
 
When our dr does a tensovectomy and repair we use 27658 and 27899. Don't feel bad I'm learning too ;) podiatry is still fairly new to me.
