Patient was taken to surgery for a complete tricep tendon rupture with avulsed fragment off the ulnar aspect of olecronon and small bony fragment has been pulled off the olecronon and displaced.
The bony fragment was excised and then physician proceeded with repair of the tricep tendon.
I was looking towards the 24342 for tricep repair with icd-9 841.8, and 24147 with icd-9 813.01 for excised bony fragment of the olecronon. Can anyone give suggestions if this is the correct pair of cpt codes and icd-9 codes for this procedure?
