Wiki Nail Avulsion - Can someone tell me what procedure

[ktress]

Hello, Can someone tell me what procedure to us for a Finger nail Avulsion with ingrown nail Diagnosis?? Thank you, Katie

 

[ashack63]

CPT CODE 11765, wedge excision of skin of nail fold is usually what ingrown nails are done.
However, if the nail was permanently removed, 11750 would be appropriate.

Avulsion of nail

With the description given, I would use 11730.

I would agree with the 11730 as well.
