About S91.32

S91.32 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for laceration with foreign body of foot. It belongs to category S91 (open wound of ankle, foot and toes), block S90-S99 (injuries to the ankle and foot) 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 S91.3 (open wound of foot), S91.32 is specifically for laceration with foreign body of foot. Related codes cover unspecified open wound of foot (S91.30), laceration without foreign body of foot (S91.31), puncture wound without foreign body of foot (S91.33), puncture wound with foreign body of foot (S91.34) and open bite of foot (S91.35).

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.
