Yes plantaris tendon transfer
Jeffrey, CPT 27654-Repair, secondary, Achilles tendon, with or without graft might define what you were looking for in this case. My thinking is you are repairing the Achilles tendon but need to fix a deficit. You decide to utilize an adjacent tendon, so it is a secondary repair vs a primary repair and you are grafting. If this is not what you were thinking, please provide more information?
