S28.1Traumatic amputation (partial) of part of thorax, except breast

S28.1 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for traumatic amputation (partial) of part of thorax, except breast. It belongs to category S28 (crushing injury of thorax, and traumatic amputation of part of thorax), block S20-S29 (injuries to the thorax) and chapter 19 (injury, poisoning and certain other consequences of external causes). It is a header code, so it can't be reported by itself; one of its 3 subcodes must be used instead.

Within S28 (crushing injury of thorax, and traumatic amputation of part of thorax), S28.1 is specifically for traumatic amputation (partial) of part of thorax, except breast. Related codes cover crushed chest (S28.0) and traumatic amputation of breast (S28.2).

Codes in this range require a 7th character: A for initial encounter, D for subsequent encounter and S for sequela. Use placeholder "X" characters to fill any empty positions before the 7th character.

It has been part of ICD-10-CM since the code set took effect on October 1, 2015 and hasn't changed since.
