S31.832Laceration with foreign body of anus

S31.832 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for laceration with foreign body of anus. It belongs to category S31 (open wound 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 S31.83 (open wound of anus), S31.832 is specifically for laceration with foreign body of anus. Related codes cover laceration without foreign body of anus (S31.831), puncture wound without foreign body of anus (S31.833), puncture wound with foreign body of anus (S31.834), open bite of anus (S31.835) and unspecified open wound of anus (S31.839).

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.
