FB41.1

ICD-11 MMS 2026-01

Spontaneous rupture of synovium

Description

This is a rupture to a fluid-filled sac containing viscous fluid which normally acts to decrease friction and also provides a cushion between bones and tendons and/or muscles around a joint.

Coding note from above levels

Includes rupture that occurs when a normal force is applied to tissues that are inferred to have less than normal strength.
