Puncture wound w/o foreign body of unsp breast, init encntr

This code signifies a penetrating injury to the breast caused by a sharp object, such as a needle or thorn, that does not leave behind any foreign material. The injury is to an unspecified breast, meaning the documentation does not specify whether it's the left or right.

Apply this code when a patient presents with a puncture wound to the breast, and the provider explicitly states that no foreign body is present. This is appropriate for the initial visit for treatment of the injury.

• Ensure documentation clearly states "puncture wound" and "without foreign body."
• Only use this code when the specific breast (left or right) is not documented.
• Append subsequent encounter or sequela characters for follow-up care or complications.
