S46.012A is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2020 edition of ICD-10-CM S46.012A became effective on October 1, 2019.
The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM S46. 011A became effective on October 1, 2021. This is the American ICD-10-CM version of S46.
The physician documents the injury diagnosis as a rotator cuff (supraspinatus) tear of the right shoulder. The physician, in the electronic medical record (EMR) appropriately selects ICD-10 code S46. 011A.
A partial tear of the rotator cuff is when the tendon is damaged but not completely ruptured (torn); a full thickness tear is where the tendon has torn completely through, often where it is attached to the top of the upper arm (humerus), making a hole in the tendon.
The names of these muscle-tendon components of the rotator cuff are: the supraspinatus which runs over the top of the ball of the shoulder joint (humeral head); the subscapularis which runs across the front of the humeral head; and. the infraspinatus and the teres minor which run across the back of the humeral head.
Partial tears: Also called incomplete tears, the damage experienced by the tendon does not sever it completely. Complete tears: More commonly referred to as a full-thickness tear, this injury entirely separates the tendon from the bone.
Complete rotator cuff tear or rupture of unspecified shoulder, not specified as traumatic. M75. 120 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes.
When the supraspinatus retracts far enough the humeral head can ride up and press against the under surface of the acromion. The indicates a chronic tear and is seen as a high riding humeral head on the plain xrays. Once this happens the tear is no longer able to be repaired.
Summary. Full-thickness rotator cuff tears are diagnosed with the help of a thorough history and physical examination, as well as the use of imaging studies, most commonly, MRI. Symptomatic full thickness rotator cuff tears can be managed surgically. Surgical repair can often be performed arthroscopically.
A partial tear goes only part of the way into the tendon. It's usually described in terms of how deep the tear is in the tendon and doesn't refer to length, width or other dimensions. A full-thickness tear is when the wear in the tendon goes all the way through the tendon.
Structure and Function The infraspinatus is a portion of the rotator cuff muscles composed of the supraspinatus, infraspinatus, teres minor, and subscapularis. These muscles act to stabilize the glenohumeral joint. The tendons of these muscles are nonlinear, viscoelastic, and heterogeneous.
A supraspinatus tear can occur in due to a trauma or repeated micro-trauma and present as a partial or full thickness tear. Most of the time the tear occurs in the tendon or as an avulsion from the greater tuberosity. The tear can be partial or full-thickness.
Your infraspinatus muscle is a thick triangular muscle located at the back of your shoulder. It's attached to the top of your upper arm bone (humerus) and your shoulder blade (scapula).
