Partial traumatic amp of right foot at ankle level, sequela

This code signifies a long-term consequence or complication resulting from a partial traumatic amputation of the right foot that occurred at the ankle level. It indicates that the patient is experiencing ongoing issues directly attributable to this past injury, rather than the acute injury itself.

Use this code when documenting follow-up care for a patient who previously sustained a partial traumatic amputation of their right foot at the ankle and is now presenting with a related sequela. This includes conditions like phantom limb pain, stump complications, or functional limitations directly stemming from the original amputation.

• Always assign this code as a secondary diagnosis, following the code for the specific sequela being treated.
• Ensure documentation clearly links the current condition to the previous partial traumatic amputation of the right foot at the ankle.
• Do not use this code for the initial acute injury; it is exclusively for late effects.
