This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement left upper femur with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach. This surgical intervention or procedure is listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 as code 0QU737Z

UNSPSC 85703577 Supplement left upper femur with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code for an orthopedic surgical procedure, yet the recent state and local contract opportunities posted under this code bear no relation to the nominal scope. The source shows no purchasing activity for orthopedic tissue-supplement procedures or related implants and surgical supplies. Instead, the recent opportunities tagged to this code encompass independent medical evaluation services, surgical benefit carve-out programs for municipal employees, occupational health surveillance, specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary clinical staffing — none of which involve orthopedic tissue augmentation or the supplies and instruments required to perform such procedures. The mismatch suggests either a systematic coding error in the state and local procurement system or an artifact in how opportunities are indexed.

The geographic spread of the mistagged opportunities spans Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach and Santa Clara County), Washington State (Department of Transportation), Florida (Collier County), and Texas (Harris County), with response dates in the October 2026 window and one opportunity (Collier County Pharmacy Benefit Management) posted with a past-due deadline of April 9, 2026. Given the disconnect between the code's nominal scope and all recent opportunities presented, this code shows no current purchasing activity for the orthopedic implant and surgical service line it purports to classify.
