S53.14Lateral subluxation and dislocation of ulnohumeral joint

S53.14 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for lateral subluxation and dislocation of ulnohumeral joint. It belongs to category S53 (dislocation and sprain of joints and ligaments of elbow), block S50-S59 (injuries to the elbow and forearm) 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 6 subcodes must be used instead.

Within S53.1 (subluxation and dislocation of ulnohumeral joint), S53.14 is specifically for lateral subluxation and dislocation of ulnohumeral joint. Related codes cover unspecified subluxation and dislocation of ulnohumeral joint (S53.10), anterior subluxation and dislocation of ulnohumeral joint (S53.11), posterior subluxation and dislocation of ulnohumeral joint (S53.12), medial subluxation and dislocation of ulnohumeral joint (S53.13) and other subluxation and dislocation of ulnohumeral joint (S53.19).

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.
