Hello- could someone out there please help me?

I am cannot figure out the reasining behind this- anyone out there who is more fluent in the shoulder than I that could maybe help?

thanks,

Cassandra George

23130 is to take out the acromion not the clavicle. With this info I would say 23120 is appropriate unless he takes out the whole acromion which is 23125
