Which code would be more appropriate for a distal biceps rupture repair using Endobutton and FiberWire technique?

I like 24342 for this, my co-worker likes 24340. The description in Coding Companion for 24340 fits well but it is a "separate procedure" which is the main reason I like 24342 instead. For 24342 Coding Companion only describes the triceps procedure so I can't really guage the accuracy of that procedure compared to my op note.

Any advice?
