S43.121A
ICD-10-CMDislocation of right acromioclavicular joint, 100%-200% displacement, initial encounter
This code signifies a complete or near-complete separation of the right acromioclavicular (AC) joint, where the clavicle is displaced upward relative to the acromion by 100% to 200% of its normal anatomical position. This represents a severe injury, often involving rupture of both the acromioclavicular and coracoclavicular ligaments.
This code is appropriate for initial encounters with patients presenting with a high-grade right AC joint dislocation, typically a Type III or IV injury according to Rockwood classification, confirmed by imaging. It should be used when the displacement is clearly documented as 100% to 200%.
