Please assign CPT code. Thank you
Patient was using a chain saw, which slipped, and the patient sustained a 5.0-cm laceration to the dorsum of the proximal portion of the left index finger, extending through the extensor tendon and capsule. Debridement of tissue was done to facilitate a better repair of this deep laceration. Tendon and capsule were sutured with five 6-0 silk sutures. Bleeders were ligated with plain catgut. Skin was debrided extensively and approximated with seven sutures of 4-0 Dermal.
