Dislocation of tarsometatarsal joint of right foot, init

This code signifies a complete displacement of the bones forming the tarsometatarsal joint in the right foot. This injury disrupts the normal alignment between the midfoot (tarsals) and the forefoot (metatarsals), specifically on the right side.

Apply this code for initial encounters where a patient presents with a newly diagnosed tarsometatarsal joint dislocation of the right foot. This typically follows acute trauma, such as a fall or direct impact, leading to significant pain, swelling, and deformity in the midfoot.

• Ensure documentation clearly specifies "dislocation" and not just a sprain or subluxation.
• Verify the laterality is explicitly stated as "right foot."
• Confirm this is the patient's initial visit for this specific injury.
