ICD-10 code for penis laceration

The ICD-10-CM code for penis laceration is S31.21 (Laceration without foreign body of penis). The official index lists 1 more specific code, so check the documentation for details such as type, cause, site or severity before settling on S31.21.

Within S31.2, choose S31.21 (Laceration without foreign body of penis) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: unspecified open wound of penis (S31.20), laceration with foreign body of penis (S31.22), puncture wound without foreign body of penis (S31.23), puncture wound with foreign body of penis (S31.24) and open bite of penis (S31.25).

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.
