ICD-10-CM S58: Traumatic Amputation Of Elbow And Forearm Overview
The diagnoses in this group represent traumatic amputation injuries affecting the elbow and forearm, including partial and complete loss of the distal upper limb through the elbow level. These injuries target the musculoskeletal and integumentary systems of the upper extremity and often involve neurovascular structures.
