The new codes are for describing the infusion of tixagevimab and cilgavimab monoclonal antibody (code XW023X7), and the infusion of other new technology monoclonal antibody (code XW023Y7).
What is the correct ICD-10-CM code to report the External Cause? Your Answer: V80.010S The External cause code is used for each encounter for which the injury or condition is being treated.
Localized swelling, mass and lump, right upper limb The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM R22. 31 became effective on October 1, 2021. This is the American ICD-10-CM version of R22.
ICD-10-CM Code for Localized swelling, mass and lump, unspecified R22. 9.
ICD-10 code: M79. 89 Other specified soft tissue disorders Site unspecified.
M79. 89 converts approximately to one of the following ICD-9-CM codes: 729.81 - Swelling of limb. 729.99 - Other disorders of soft tissue.
Soft tissue disorder, unspecified M79. 9 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM M79. 9 became effective on October 1, 2021.
2022 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code R22: Localized swelling, mass and lump of skin and subcutaneous tissue.
Other specified joint disorders, right wrist The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM M25. 831 became effective on October 1, 2021.
M25. 532 Pain in left wrist - ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Codes.
Localized swelling, mass and lump, left lower limb R22. 42 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM R22. 42 became effective on October 1, 2021.
Basics of soft tissue masses. Soft tissue tumors are cell growths that emerge nearly anywhere in the body: in tendons, muscles, ligaments, cartilage, nerves, blood vessels, fat, and other tissues. Patients commonly refer to these masses as lumps or bumps.
Code 21930 is for “excision, tumor, soft tissue of back or flank,” and it appears in the “surgery/musculoskeletal system” of the manual. In the Medicare Fee Schedule database, 11403 has a 10-day global period and 21930 has a 90-day global period, suggesting that 21930 is a more extensive procedure.
Localized swelling, mass and lump, lower limb, bilateral The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM R22. 43 became effective on October 1, 2021. This is the American ICD-10-CM version of R22.

The wrist, or carpus, contains eight carpal bones. There are three bones in the proximal row (scaphoid, lunate, and triquetrum) and five bones in the distal row (trapezium, trapezoid, capitate, hamate, and pisiform). The trapezium is also known as the greater multangular, the trapezoid as the lesser multangular, and the scaphoid as the navicular bone.#N#In ICD-10-CM, most wrist conditions coded from chapter 13 (M codes) have a “3” in the fifth position of the code such as M19.031 Primary osteoarthritis, right wrist. Common conditions of the wrist and distal radius from chapters 13 and 19 (M and S codes) are:
A wrist defect often requiring surgical intervention is scapholunate advanced collapse (SLAC.) SLAC is a condition of progressive instability that causes advanced radiocarpal and midcarpal osteoarthritis. SLAC describes a specific pattern of progressive subluxation with loss of articulation between the scaphoid and lunate bones. SLAC usually results from trauma to the wrist, but may be caused by a degenerative process such as calcinosis or as a sequela of a prior injury. SLAC is estimated to account for more than half of all non-traumatic wrist osteoarthritis cases.#N#Signs and symptoms of SLAC include:
De Quervain’s disease (radial styloid tenosynovitis) is an inflammation of the first dorsal extensor compartment; this is entrapment tendinitis causing tendon thickening, which leads to restricted motion and a grinding sensation with tendon movement (crepitus).
The wrist is classified as an “intermediate” joint, but consists of many intricate structures and bones. Accurate coding of wrist diagnoses, services, and procedures requires a solid working knowledge of wrist, hand, and distal forearm anatomy.
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a type of joint disease that results from breakdown of joint cartilage and underlying bone. The most common symptoms are joint pain and stiffness. Initially, symptoms may occur only following exercise, but over time may become constant.

In medical parlance, swelling, turgescence or tumefaction is a transient abnormal enlargement of a body part or area not caused by proliferation of cells. It is caused by accumulation of fluid in tissues. It can occur throughout the body (generalized), or a specific part or organ can be affected (localized).
This is the official approximate match mapping between ICD9 and ICD10, as provided by the General Equivalency mapping crosswalk. This means that while there is no exact mapping between this ICD10 code R22.32 and a single ICD9 code, 782.2 is an approximate match for comparison and conversion purposes.
