Dislocation of tarsometatarsal joint of unsp foot, sequela

This code signifies a long-term complication or residual effect stemming from a prior dislocation of the tarsometatarsal joint (Lisfranc joint) in an unspecified foot. These sequelae can include chronic pain, instability, arthritis, or deformity that persists after the initial injury has healed.

Use this code when documenting a patient presenting with ongoing symptoms or conditions directly attributable to a past tarsometatarsal joint dislocation, where the specific foot (left or right) is not documented. This is appropriate for follow-up visits addressing chronic issues rather than the acute injury.

• Only use this code for conditions that are a direct consequence of a previously treated tarsometatarsal dislocation.
• Ensure documentation clearly links the current condition to the prior dislocation.
• Avoid using this code for acute or initial dislocations; those require codes from the acute injury chapter.
