S53.131A
ICD-10-CMMedial subluxation of right ulnohumeral joint, initial encounter
This code signifies a partial dislocation of the right elbow joint, specifically where the ulna shifts inward relative to the humerus. This condition implies that the joint surfaces are still in partial contact, but their normal alignment is disrupted.
Apply this code when documenting the initial diagnosis and treatment of a patient presenting with a medial subluxation of their right ulnohumeral joint. This is appropriate for the first time this specific injury is being addressed.
