I would appreciate some help with choosing the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for "right gluteus medius tear, subsequent encounter." I came up with S76.321D. Any thoughts? (Thank you in advance for any help you can give me.) I would use S76.311D. When you look up tear, muscle it tells you to see “strain”. So, I would code it to strain not laceration.

Flexor digitorum profundus (FDP) tendons They run down the forearm and within the carpal tunnel. The four tendons glide in sheaths along the hand and fingers and insert into the fingertip bone. These tendons run closer to the bone compared to the rest of the flexors in the hand and fingers.
329: Laceration of extensor muscle, fascia and tendon of unspecified finger at wrist and hand level.
Flexor tendons run from the forearm to the ends of the fingers across the palm side of the hand. They control the ability to bend fingers down to the palm (for example to make a fist, grip, or pinch objects). When these tendons are cut or injured, it can be impossible to bend the fingers or thumb.

But soMoreThat one's easier the FDS on the other hand flexes at the proximal interphalangeal joint. But so does the FDP. So in order to isolate. The FDS flexion we have to handicap the FDP.
Tendons of flexor digitorum sperficialis (FDS) and profundus (FDP) (with flexor policis longus) are located deeper respectively 1,2. Tendons of FDS and FDP are enclosed in a common synovial sheath, the ulnar bursa which is extended from wrist proximally to hand distally; and continues to synovial bursa of fifth finger.
An extensor tendon injury is damage to the tissues on the back of the hand and fingers. It can make it hard for you to extend your wrist, open your hand, or straighten your fingers. The inability to perform these functions can severely limit hand and upper extremity function.
Extensor tendons run just underneath the skin along the back of the hands and wrists. They control the hand's ability to straighten the fingers and wrists. A mallet finger injury happens when a finger is jammed, causing an extensor tendon to rupture at the base of the finger joint.
The extensor tendon repair code is 25270—Repair, tendon or muscle, extensor, forearm and/or wrist; primary, single, each tendon or muscle.
If your extensor tendons are damaged, you'll be unable to straighten 1 or more fingers. If your flexor tendons are damaged, you'll be unable to bend 1 or more fingers. Tendon damage can also cause pain and swelling (inflammation) in your hand.
