About coding testis laceration
The ICD-10-CM code for testis laceration is S31.31 (Laceration without foreign body of scrotum and testes). The official index lists 1 more specific code, so check the documentation for details such as type, cause, site or severity before settling on S31.31.
Within S31.3, choose S31.31 (Laceration without foreign body of scrotum and testes) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: unspecified open wound of scrotum and testes (S31.30), laceration with foreign body of scrotum and testes (S31.32), puncture wound without foreign body of scrotum and testes (S31.33), puncture wound with foreign body of scrotum and testes (S31.34) and open bite of scrotum and testes (S31.35).
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.
