Pt states that his peroneus, brevis and longus tendons sublux over the lateral malleolus at least once a week. It used to reduce on its own but now is having to manually reduce it. What's an accurate dx for peroneus longus subluxtion?
subluxation refers you to also look @ dislocation, by site...dislocation (states- subluxation in parenthesis) in this case I would look under recurrent and be referred to derangement, recurrent ankle 718.37; UNLESS it is congenital use the congenital code.
