How do you code a rupture pectoralis major tendon repair? I have read to code a ruptured pectoralis major tendon repair as 24341—an upper arm code because the pectoralis major attaches to the humerus.

The tendons of your pectoralis major insert into the front of your upper arm (humerus) and the muscle forms the front wall of your armpit. Rupture involves tearing of the tendon normally just by its insertion into the bone. Often, only one of the two heads of your pec major muscle gets ruptured.
The pectoralis major is the superior most and largest muscle of the anterior chest wall. It is a thick, fan-shaped muscle that lies underneath the breast tissue and forms the anterior wall of the axilla.

The pectoralis muscles, commonly called “pecs” are large, powerful muscles in the front of the chest wall. The pectoralis tendon connects the pectoralis muscle from the sternum (center of the chest) and clavicle (collar bone), to the humerus (upper arm bone.)
The pectoralis major (from Latin pectus 'breast') is a thick, fan-shaped or triangular convergent muscle, situated at the chest of the human body. It makes up the bulk of the chest muscles and lies under the breast.
The pectoralis major has a broad origin, based on which it is divided into three parts: clavicular part, sternocostal part and abdominal part. All three parts converge laterally and insert onto the greater tubercle of humerus.
Description. The pectoralis minor is triangular in shape and is located under the pectoralis major, and both form the anterior wall of the axilla. It originates from the margins of the third to fifth ribs adjacent to the costochondral junction.

Surgery is usually required to repair pectoralis major injuries, except when there is a partial tear of the tendon, when there is a rupture of the center of the muscle, or in elderly patients. Athletes who injure the pectoralis major muscle usually desire a full return of strength to return to their sport.
A pectoralis major strain typically occurs when the muscle is forcibly contracted whilst in a stretched position. This can occur during weight training when performing bench press exercises. When the bar is lowered, the pectoralis major muscle is stretched across the chest.
¹ Pectoralis major injuries can range from contusions (bruises) and inflammation to complete tears and frequently result in pain, weakness, deformity in the contour of the chest, and, ultimately, a decline in overall shoulder function.
In type 4 pec ruptures, the muscle tears off of the sternum. A Type 1 or Type 2 pec tear is far more common than type 3 or 4.
