S98.012Complete traumatic amputation of left foot at ankle level

S98.012 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for complete traumatic amputation of left foot at ankle level. It belongs to category S98 (traumatic amputation of ankle and foot), 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 S98.01 (complete traumatic amputation of foot at ankle level), S98.012 is specifically for complete traumatic amputation of left foot at ankle level. Related codes cover right foot at ankle level (S98.011) and unspecified foot at ankle level (S98.019).

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.
