/in /by

Laceration on the forearm and complex repair. A patient involved in a bicycle accident presents to the ER with multiple wounds on the left arm. The surgeon performs an intermediate repair of a 4.0 cm laceration on the forearm and a complex repair of a 2.0 cm laceration of the elbow. The shoulder wound is minor and does not require sutures. How should this procedure be coded?
