This 45-year-old male presents to the operating room with a painful mass of the right upper arm. General anesthesia was induced. Soft tissue dissection was carried through the proximal aspect of the teres minor muscle. Upon further dissection a large mass was noted just distal of the IGHL (inferior glenohumeral ligament), which appeared to be benign in nature. With blunt dissection and electrocautery, the 4 cm mass was removed en bloc and sent to pathology. The wound was irrigated, and repair of the teres minor with subcutaneous tissue was closed with triple-0 Vicryl. Skin was closed with double-0 Prolene in a subcuticular fashion. What CPT® code is reported? a. 23076-RT b. 11406-RT c. 23066-RT d. 23075-RT

A young female patient was taken to the operative suite and was placed under appropriate anesthesia. She has been suffering from pain and a potential rotator cuff tear of the right shoulder. The right arm was sterilely draped and prepped. Arthroscopic portals were created anteriorly-posteriorly. The joint line was carefully examined. The biceps insertion was noted to be normal. The middle and inferior glenohumeral ligaments were visualized and noted to be normal. The undersurface of the rotator cuff was clearly visualized and also noted to be normal. There was a large anterior spur formation. The burr was introduced through a lateral portal and the anterior lip of the acromion was resected. The undersurface of the clavicle was noted to be quite prominent and part of the impinging process. There was intense bursitis and a bursectomy was performed, allowing for acromial decompression and release. Spurs were debrided from the distal clavicle. All instruments were removed, skin incisions were closed and a dressing was applied. The patient was placed in a sling and returned to the recovery room. What CPT® code(s) is/are reported? a. 29822-RT, 29826-RT b. 29824-RT, 29826-RT c. 23415-RT d. 23130-RT, 23120-51-RT

An elderly female presented with increasing pain in her left dorsal foot. The patient was brought to the operating room and placed under general anesthesia. A curvilinear incision was centered over the lesion itself. Soft tissue dissection was carried through to the ganglion. The ganglion was clearly identified as a gelatinous material. It was excised directly off the bone and sent to pathology. There was noted to be a large bony spur at the level of the head of the 1st metatarsal. Using a double action rongeur, the spur itself was removed and sequestrectomy was performed. A rasp was utilized to smooth the bone surface. The eburnated bony surface was then covered utilizing bone wax. The wound was irrigated and closed in layers. What CPT® codes are reported? a. 28111-LT, 28092-51-LT b. 28100-LT, 28092-51-LT c. 28045-LT, 28090-51-LT d. 28122-LT, 28090-51-LT

A necessary defect in the shape of the glenohumeral joint capsule predisposes the joint to which type of dislocation?

A patient is seen in the hospital’s outpatient surgical area with a diagnosis of a displaced fracture of the lateral condyle, right elbow. An ORIF (open reduction) procedure was performed and included the following techniques: An incision was made in the area of the lateral epicondyle. This was carried through subcutaneous tissue, and the fracture site was easily exposed. Inspection revealed the fragment to be rotated in two places about 90 degrees. It was possible to manually reduce this quite easily, and the manipulation resulted in an almost anatomic reduction. This was fixed with two pins driven across the humerus. The pins were cut off below skin level. The wound was closed with plain catgut subcutaneously and 5-0 nylon for the skin. Dressings and a long arm cast were applied. What CPT® and ICD-10-CM codes are reported? a. 24579-RT, 29065-51-RT, S42.434B b. 24575-RT, S42.434B c. 24579-RT, S42.451A d. 24577-RT, S42.451A
