ICD-9-CM diagnosis code (retired)
832.11 — Open anterior dislocation of elbow
About ICD-9-CM 832.11
832.11 is an ICD-9-CM diagnosis code for open anterior dislocation of elbow. ICD-9-CM was retired for U.S. claims on October 1, 2015, when ICD-10-CM took over.
The CMS General Equivalence Mappings translate it to 3 ICD-10-CM codes, such as S51.009A (Unspecified open wound of unspecified elbow, initial encounter), S53.016A (Anterior dislocation of unspecified radial head, initial encounter) and S53.116A (Anterior dislocation of unspecified ulnohumeral joint, initial encounter). All of these are approximate matches, so review the record to pick the right one. Some mappings are combinations: more than one ICD-10 code is needed to fully express the ICD-9 code.
