About S41.032

S41.032 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for puncture wound without foreign body of left shoulder. It belongs to category S41 (open wound of shoulder and upper arm), block S40-S49 (injuries to the shoulder and upper arm) 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 S41.03 (puncture wound without foreign body of shoulder), S41.032 is specifically for puncture wound without foreign body of left shoulder. Related codes cover right shoulder (S41.031) and unspecified shoulder (S41.039).

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.
