How would I code for bone spurs in the wrist area?
Example: Exploration with decompression of the flexor carpi radialis tendon, tenosynovectomy of tendon and also debridement of scaphoid bone spurs.
DX: Flexor carpi radialis tendon rupture with sigmoid synovitis and a Mannerfelt lesion on the scaphoid.
The office is using 25001
Another example: Excision of cyst as well as excision of bone spur from the distal scaphoid volar tuberosity.
Dx: Left wrist volar ganglion cyst I used an 25111 - for the cyst.
Please help?!?!?!?!?!?!??!?!
