Inclusion terms

Alternative wording in documentation that is classified to S32.15.

  • Transverse flexion fracture of sacrum with posterior displacement

Excludes1 — never code together — inherited from S32

The conditions below can never be reported together with S32.15 on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.

  • transection of abdomen (S38.3)

Code first — inherited from S32

The underlying condition below must be sequenced before S32.15. S32.15 describes a manifestation and cannot be the principal or first-listed diagnosis.

  • any associated spinal cord and spinal nerve injury (S34.-)

Use additional code — inherited from Chapter 19

  • code to identify any retained foreign body, if applicable (Z18.-)

Excludes2 — not included here — inherited from Chapter 19
