The correct codes are 13121, 13122 and 11042 for the given condition.

Complex repairs deal with wounds which are much deeper than the ones requiring simple repair. Complex repairs need debridement or notable revisions, retention sutures, etc. in addition to the layered closure of the affected portion.

The code 13121 indicates complex repair in the scalp, arms as well as legs; 2.6 cm to 7.5 cm for the initial 7.5 cm wound.

The code 13122 is added to define the wound (greater than 7.5cm) requiring complex repair in the same region for the extra 1.0 cm i.e. 7.5 cm + 1.0 cm = 8.5 cm.

The code 11042 is used for reporting debridement of contaminated skin and subcutaneous tissue.

There are 80 axial skeletal bones out of which 22 bones are present in the skull, 7 attached to the skull, 25 in a thoracic cage and 26 in the vertebral column.

The axial skeleton help maintains the position of the appendicular skeleton, maintain the posture of the body by maintaining the posture of the neck, head and trunk and also help in the respiratory movements.

Thus, all of the above is correct.
