About T87
T87 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for complications peculiar to reattachment and amputation. It belongs to block T80-T88 (complications of surgical and medical care, not elsewhere classified) 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 8 subcodes must be used instead.
To report this condition, pick the subcode that matches the documentation: T87.0 (extremity), T87.1 (extremity), T87.2 (part), T87.3 (stump), T87.4 (stump), T87.5 (stump), T87.8 (stump) and T87.9 (stump).
It has been part of ICD-10-CM since the code set took effect on October 1, 2015 and hasn't changed since.
