Typical Clinical Scenarios

An elderly patient on anticoagulation falls at home and sustains a traumatic avulsion of the left shoulder bursal tissue with persistent pain, swelling, and limited shoulder ROM despite initial immobilization. Because imaging and exam indicate the bursa is separated from its native attachments and conservative management has failed, the patient is admitted for surgical stabilization to reattach the bursa to restore normal biomechanics and relieve pain; open surgical reattachment is selected due to tissue quality and need for direct visualization. Typical codes: 0MM20ZZ
A middle-aged manual laborer with chronic rotator cuff disease presents electively for operative management after months of refractory shoulder dysfunction; during planned arthroscopic surgery the surgeon finds a detached left subacromial bursa and a partially detached superior glenohumeral ligament contributing to symptoms. To re-establish normal anatomy and improve outcomes, the surgeon performs percutaneous endoscopic reattachment of the bursa and ligament to their anatomical location during the same inpatient admission. Typical codes: 0MM24ZZ
A younger patient who previously had an open repair for left shoulder instability returns with recurrent pain and imaging demonstrating separation of the previously repaired shoulder ligament and adhesions around the bursa; the surgeon takes the patient back to the OR for revision reattachment to address failed prior fixation and restore shoulder stability. Because direct access and scar management are required, an open reattachment is performed. Typical codes: 0MM20ZZ
