About ICD-9-CM 881.22

881.22 is an ICD-9-CM diagnosis code for open wound of wrist, with tendon involvement. ICD-9-CM was retired for U.S. claims on October 1, 2015, when ICD-10-CM took over.

The CMS General Equivalence Mappings translate it to 2 ICD-10-CM codes, such as S61.509A (Unspecified open wound of unspecified wrist, initial encounter) and S66.929A (Laceration of unspecified muscle, fascia and tendon at wrist and hand level, unspecified hand, initial encounter). All of these are approximate matches, so review the record to pick the right one. Some mappings are combinations: more than one ICD-10 code is needed to fully express the ICD-9 code.
