One of my doctors did an ORIF of a proximal tibia with an open reduction without fixation on the proximal fibula. Having a brain lapse today..........use a combo code or can I code these separately?

What about 27758
and 27784 ( states includes fixation WHEN performed ) so even if there is no internal fixation, it should apply
