ICD-10 code: M65. 4 Radial styloid tenosynovitis [de Quervain]
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.

De Quervain's tenosynovitis (dih-kwer-VAINS ten-oh-sine-oh-VIE-tis) is a painful condition affecting the tendons on the thumb side of your wrist. If you have de Quervain's tenosynovitis, it will probably hurt when you turn your wrist, grasp anything or make a fist.
ICD-10-CM Code for Bursitis of right shoulder M75. 51.
Pyogenic flexor tenosynovitis (PFT), also known as septic or suppurative flexor tenosynovitis, is a closed-space infection of the flexor tendon sheath of the hand and remains a challenging problem within the realm of hand surgery.
M67. 834 - Other specified disorders of tendon, left wrist | ICD-10-CM.
Tenosynovitis is a broadly defined as inflammation of a tendon and its respective synovial sheath. This inflammation can derive from a great number of distinct processes, including idiopathic, infectious, and inflammatory causes.
De Quervain’s is diagnosed by means of a Finkelstein’s Test, in which the patient makes a fist and the provider pulls the wrist away from the thumb. Pain is a typical indicator of De Quervain’s. Preliminary or stop-gap treatment may include fitting to a short-arm splint or cast.
The wrist, or carpus, contains eight carpal bones. There are three bones in the proximal row (scaphoid, lunate, and triquetrum) and five bones in the distal row (trapezium, trapezoid, capitate, hamate, and pisiform). The trapezium is also known as the greater multangular, the trapezoid as the lesser multangular, and the scaphoid as the navicular bone.#N#In ICD-10-CM, most wrist conditions coded from chapter 13 (M codes) have a “3” in the fifth position of the code such as M19.031 Primary osteoarthritis, right wrist. Common conditions of the wrist and distal radius from chapters 13 and 19 (M and S codes) are:
A wrist defect often requiring surgical intervention is scapholunate advanced collapse (SLAC.) SLAC is a condition of progressive instability that causes advanced radiocarpal and midcarpal osteoarthritis. SLAC describes a specific pattern of progressive subluxation with loss of articulation between the scaphoid and lunate bones. SLAC usually results from trauma to the wrist, but may be caused by a degenerative process such as calcinosis or as a sequela of a prior injury. SLAC is estimated to account for more than half of all non-traumatic wrist osteoarthritis cases.#N#Signs and symptoms of SLAC include:
De Quervain’s disease (radial styloid tenosynovitis) is an inflammation of the first dorsal extensor compartment; this is entrapment tendinitis causing tendon thickening, which leads to restricted motion and a grinding sensation with tendon movement (crepitus).
The wrist is classified as an “intermediate” joint, but consists of many intricate structures and bones. Accurate coding of wrist diagnoses, services, and procedures requires a solid working knowledge of wrist, hand, and distal forearm anatomy.
