Wiki Degenerative tear of glenoid labrum

[codedog]

Anyone know diagnosis for degenerative tear of glenoid labrum?

840.8

i thought 840.8 was current injury ?

 

[Bella Cullen]

Not for that code, because otherwise it would say current and excludes old, like it does under 836 code range for dislocation of knee.
So I think that 840.8 is safe to use.

I would consider 718.01

 

[mbort]

I agree with coderguy, I would use 718.01
