POSTOPERATIVE DIAGNOSIS: Left leg wound dehiscence. PROCEDURE: Left leg when debridement and scar revision with closures. fibrous tissue, no pocket of fluid, rest of the tissue appeared healthy. chronic exertional compartment syndrome. Postoperatively, he has had a small area of wound dehiscence of the inferior lateral wound. This has drainage.
Secondary closure of a wound dehiscence is performed on a wound that has opened at the site of the earlier repair. The extent of the wound dehiscence is evaluated. The wound is irrigated with sterile saline or an antibiotic solution.
M Non-healing surgical wounds in ICD-10 ICD-10-CM is very specific and many easy-to-adapt codes such as non-healing wounds have been replaced by dedicated categories. Use T81.89X (A, D, or S) along with a secondary code for the complication/manifestation.
Wound dehiscence under the ICD-10-CM is coded T81. 3 which exclusively pertains to disruption of a wound not elsewhere classified. The purpose of this distinction is to rule out other potential wound-related complications that are categorized elsewhere in the ICD-10-CM.
Unspecified complications of amputation stump T87. 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 T87. 9 became effective on October 1, 2021.

Dehiscence. In relation to lower limb amputation wounds, complete dehiscence can expose muscle and bone [39]. It occurs when the wound has failed to develop sufficient strength to withstand forces placed on it [14]. Such forces can include trauma, either shear or, more commonly, direct trauma sustained in a fall.

code 12020 (Treatment of superficial wound dehiscence; simple closure), which has a global period of 10 days, or. code 13160 (Secondary closure of surgical wound or dehiscence; extensive or complicated), which has a 90-day global period.
Dehiscence is a partial or total separation of previously approximated wound edges, due to a failure of proper wound healing. This scenario typically occurs 5 to 8 days following surgery when healing is still in the early stages.
2. A non-healing wound, such as an ulcer, is not coded with an injury code beginning with the letter S. Four common codes are L97-, “non-pressure ulcers”; L89-, “pressure ulcers”; I83-, “varicose veins with ulcers”; and I70.
