The spleen is a part of the lymphatic system, which is responsible for filtering blood, removing damaged blood cells, and supporting immune function. The spleen contains lymphocytes that help fight infections and regulate the immune response.

A. Nervous: The nervous system includes the brain, spinal cord, and nerves, unrelated to immune function.

B. Endocrine: The endocrine system regulates hormones through glands like the thyroid and pancreas, not directly involved with blood filtration or immune cell production.

C. Digestive: While the spleen is located near digestive organs, it does not play a role in digestion.

Thus, the correct answer is D. Lymphatic.

The operative service is anamputation of the left third toe at the metatarsophalangeal (MTP) joint. CPT28820describes toe amputationthrough the MTP joint, matching the “amputation at the metatarsophalangeal joint” language and the incision encircling the joint with removal of the toe after dividing tendons/ligaments. ModifierT2correctly identifies theleft foot, third digit. Diagnosis coding must capture the ischemic disease withgangreneplus thenon-pressure chronic ulceron the toe. In the answer set,I70.262represents lower-extremity atherosclerosis/PVDwith gangrene(left side per the option). The chronic ulcer is separately reported using the providedL97.528non-pressure ulcer code for the left foot/toe severity category offered by the choices. Antibiotic prophylaxis (Ancef), anesthesia type, tourniquet use/time, and technique details support the procedure but do not change the core CPT/ICD-10-CM selection. Therefore, the correct combination is28820-T2, I70.262, L97.528.
