Spontaneous rupture of extensor tendons, right upper arm
Symptoms of Rupture of the Common Digital Extensor Tendon in Horses
Extensor tendonitis is inflammation of the extensor tendons which run along the top of the foot. It is an overuse injury which is common in runners, especially if your shoes do not fit properly, or are laced too tight. Here we explain the symptoms, causes, and treatment of extensor tendonitis and tendinopathy.
The common extensor tendon is a tough band of fibrous connective tissue that attaches to the lateral epicondyle of the humerus (long bone in the upper arm) at the elbow.

Tendon and ligament tears or ruptures are injuries to the soft tissues that connect muscles and joints. Common symptoms of tendon and ligament tears are pain and swelling. You may also hear or feel a pop when you tear the tissue. Treatments can include a brace, medicine, or surgical repair.
ICD-10-CM M67. 813 is grouped within Diagnostic Related Group(s) (MS-DRG v39.0): 557 Tendonitis, myositis and bursitis with mcc. 558 Tendonitis, myositis and bursitis without mcc.

ICD-10 code M79. 601 for Pain in right arm is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Soft tissue disorders .
Tennis elbow (lateral epicondylitis) is a painful condition that occurs when tendons in your elbow are overloaded, usually by repetitive motions of the wrist and arm.
Lateral epicondylitis, or tennis elbow, is swelling or tearing of the tendons that bend your wrist backward away from your palm. It's caused by repetitive motion of the forearm muscles, which attach to the outside of your elbow. The muscles and tendons become sore from excessive strain.
The elbow joint is made up of the bone in the upper arm (the humerus) and one of the bones in the lower arm (ulna). The bony prominences, or bumps, at the bottom of the humerus are called the epicondyles. The bump on the outer side of the elbow is called the lateral epicondyle.
The lateral epicondyle is a bony prominence of the elbow that serves as the origin for the common wrist and digit extensors. Lateral epicondylitis generally refers to pain associated with the myotendinous junction of the lateral elbow, which may otherwise be noted as an elbow tendi-nopathy, tendonitis, epicondylalgia, or, more commonly, as “tennis elbow.” Upon advanced imaging, there are varying degrees of tendinosis, with or without associated tearing or bony infl ammation, which lends to the suba-cute or chronic nature of the condition itself ( Jayanthi, 2018 ; Lai, Erickson, Mlynarek, & Wang, 2018 ; O’Connor, 2018 ).
Lateral epicondylitis is a common cause of subacute or chronic elbow pain and should be a leading differential for any patient who does repetitive gripping or loading of the elbow for work or during leisure activities. Care should be taken in examining the patient to differentiate from other elbow issues such as arthritis, bursitis, un-derlying ligamentous instability, or other common ten-dinopathies, that is, triceps or biceps tendonitis. Patients will typically present with weeks to months of “nagging” symptoms and have focal tenderness overlying the lat-eral epicondyle. There is associated pain noted upon gripping or resisted wrist extension ( Jayanthi, 2018 ; Lai et al., 2018 ; O’Connor, 2018 ; Sims et al., 2014 ). The advanced practice provider plays an integral part in facilitating the most common conservative treatments of lateral epicondylitis: prescription anti-infl ammatories, bracing, facilitating referral to physi-cal therapy, and consideration of options for injections.
