About S37.062

S37.062 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for major laceration of left kidney. It belongs to category S37 (injury of urinary and pelvic 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 S37.06 (major laceration of kidney), S37.062 is specifically for major laceration of left kidney. Related codes cover right kidney (S37.061) and unspecified kidney (S37.069).

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.
