About S41.112

S41.112 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for laceration without foreign body of left upper arm. 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 S41.11 (laceration without foreign body of upper arm), S41.112 is specifically for laceration without foreign body of left upper arm. Related codes cover right upper arm (S41.111) and unspecified upper arm (S41.119).

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.
