About S58
S58 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for traumatic amputation of elbow and forearm. It belongs to 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 3 subcodes must be used instead.
To report this condition, pick the subcode that matches the documentation: S58.0 (level), S58.1 (wrist) and S58.9 (unspecified).
Don't report S58 together with the conditions in its Excludes1 note: traumatic amputation of wrist and hand (S68.-).
It has been part of ICD-10-CM since the code set took effect on October 1, 2015 and hasn't changed since.
