About S36.201

S36.201 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for unspecified injury of body of pancreas. It belongs to category S36 (injury of intra-abdominal organs), 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 S36.20 (unspecified injury of pancreas), S36.201 is specifically for unspecified injury of body of pancreas. Related codes cover head of pancreas (S36.200), tail of pancreas (S36.202) and unspecified part of pancreas (S36.209).

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.
