This code signifies a deep cut or tear affecting the flexor muscles, their surrounding fascia, and the tendons of the right middle finger, with the injury located specifically at the forearm level. This type of injury often results in significant functional impairment of the digit.

Apply this code when documenting an initial presentation for a patient who has sustained a laceration involving the flexor structures (muscle, fascia, and tendon) of their right middle finger, and the injury site is anatomically located within the forearm region. This code is appropriate for the first encounter for treatment of this specific injury.

• Ensure documentation clearly specifies "right middle finger" and "forearm level" for anatomical accuracy.
• Verify that the laceration involves all three specified structures: muscle, fascia, AND tendon.
• Confirm this is the initial encounter for treatment of this injury, as indicated by the "A" seventh character.
