Wiki forearm laceration

[ggparker14]

Need help with dx code.

Forearm laceration

Deep structures involved, muscle fascia into muscle belly, probably pronator qualdratus.

Would 881.20 be an appropriate code for this documenation?

Thanks for any help.

I would use 881.10 for complicated the tendon is only probable in this dictattion.
