Complete traumatic amputation of penis, sequela

This code signifies a long-term complication or late effect resulting from a complete traumatic amputation of the penis. It indicates that the initial injury has healed, but the patient is now experiencing ongoing issues directly attributable to that past traumatic event.

This code is used when a patient presents for treatment of a condition that is a sequela of a previously sustained complete traumatic penile amputation. Examples include chronic pain, psychological distress, or complications related to reconstructive surgery performed after the initial amputation, occurring after the acute phase of the injury has passed.

• Always use this code as a secondary diagnosis, following the code for the specific sequela being treated.
• Ensure documentation clearly links the current condition to the past traumatic penile amputation.
• Do not use for the initial acute injury; this code is exclusively for late effects.
