Thumb Collateral Ligament Injuries, most commonly ulnar collateral (UCL), are athletic injuries that lead to a decrease in effective thumb pinch and grasp. Diagnosis relies upon thumb MCP radial-ulnar stress exam and MRI studies.
Traumatic rupture of ulnar collateral ligament ICD-10-CM S53. 32XA is grouped within Diagnostic Related Group(s) (MS-DRG v39.0):
The ulnar collateral ligament to the thumb is a complex ligament, comprised of the UCL proper and the accessory UCL. Together, they stabilize the thumb for pinch and grip activities; without this ligament, you would have very little pinch or grip strength and very poor overall dexterity.
ICD-10 Code for Unspecified sprain of right thumb- S63. 601- Codify by AAPC.
The most common ligament to be injured in the thumb is the ulnar collateral ligament. This strong band of tissue, which is attached to the middle joint of the thumb (the metacarpophalangeal or MCP joint), keeps your thumb stable so that you can pinch and grasp things.
A sprained thumb is a common injury among athletes. This injury happens when an ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) — tough and flexible tissue that connect bones in the thumb — gets stretched too far or tears.
A ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) sprain is a tear to one of the ligaments on the inner side of your elbow. A UCL sprain usually occurs due to a throwing motion – that typically occurs during sports – or after elbow dislocation or surgery.

S69.91XAS69. 91XA - Unspecified injury of right wrist, hand and finger(s) [initial encounter]. ICD-10-CM.
The CMC joint is located where the thumb (metacarpal) bone meets the wrist (carpal) bone. As this joint becomes worn, often due to age, it can lead to a painful condition called thumb arthritis (also known as CMC arthritis or basal joint arthritis).
Gamekeeper's thumb is an insufficiency of the ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) of the metacarpophalangeal (MCP) joint of the thumb. Campbell originally coined the term in 1955 because the condition was most commonly associated with Scottish gamekeepers (especially rabbit keepers) as a work-related injury.
WHAT IS SKIER'S THUMB? Skier's thumb occurs when one of the two main ligaments that support the thumb, the ulnar collateral ligament, is abruptly stretched beyond its limits. It is typically referred to as skier's thumb because it commonly results when a skier falls with an outstretched hand while holding a ski pole.
Skier's thumb is an injury to the ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) of the thumb metacarpophalangeal joint (MCPJ) which has a serious risk of disabling chronic instability if not treated adequately. The lesion most often occurs in skiers when the ski pole forces the thumb to deviate radially.
