Your surgeon may treat De Quervain’s tendinitis with injections into the wrist compartment. You report this with code 20550 (Injection [s]; single tendon sheath, or ligament, aponeurosis [e.g., plantar “fascia”]). “The injection is into the tendon sheath, and for this you report code 20550,” says Stumpf.

ICD-10 code: M65. 9 Synovitis and tenosynovitis, unspecified.
Tendinitis is a condition in which a tendon is inflamed, causing swelling and pain. Tendons are strong cords of tissue that connect muscles to bones. Tenosynovitis is a condition that's linked to tendinitis. It occurs when the lining of the sheath around a tendon is inflamed.
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome and de Quervains' tenosynovitis splints are very different. Remember, the area of the wrist/hand affected is different, so they must be splinted differently. Both CTS and de Quervains' tenosynovitis responds well to manual stretching; however, they are stretched differently.

ICD-10-CM Code for Synovitis and tenosynovitis M65.
Synovitis is a common condition meaning inflammation of the synovial lining of a joint or tendon sheath (the tunnel the tendon runs through). Tendon sheath synovitis is referred to as tenosynovitis. It is a generalised response of that particular tissue (the synovial lining) to a local problem e.g. injury or infection.
Flexor tenosynovitis is the inflammation of the fluid-filled sheath that surrounds a tendon, i.e., the synovium. A flexor tendon, during chronic inflammation, may cause painful edema, and long-term degeneration resulting in knuckle pads or rarely flexor tendon ruptures [4,5].
