UNSPSC 85642252 Removal of tissue expander from lower extremity subcutaneous tissue and fascia, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity. The six most recent state and local opportunities posted under this code are actually soliciting occupational medical surveillance services, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical procedure carve-out benefits for municipal employee health plans, and emergency medical services for youth in detention — none of which align with the surgical procedure named in the code's description. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual work being procured suggests either a tagging error in the state and local procurement systems or that this code does not represent active purchasing activity for the procedure it names.

The geographic spread of the misaligned opportunities spans Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach and County of Santa Clara), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation), and Texas (Harris County), with the most recent due dates clustered between October 7 and October 20, 2026. Because no procurement records support buying of tissue expander removal procedures at the state or local level, this code does not present a viable pursuit opportunity at this time. Firms should verify code assignments in future RFPs before committing resources to opportunities posted under this taxonomy reference.
