S30.854Superficial foreign body of vagina and vulva

S30.854 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for superficial foreign body of vagina and vulva. It belongs to category S30 (superficial injury of abdomen, lower back, pelvis and external genitals), block S30-S39 (injuries to the abdomen, lower back, lumbar spine, pelvis and external genitals) 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 S30.85 (superficial foreign body of abdomen, lower back, pelvis and external genitals), S30.854 is specifically for superficial foreign body of vagina and vulva. Related codes cover lower back and pelvis (S30.850), abdominal wall (S30.851), penis (S30.852), scrotum and testes (S30.853), unspecified external genital organs, male (S30.855), unspecified external genital organs, female (S30.856), anus (S30.857) and flank (S30.85A).

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.
