War op involving explosion of aerial bomb, milt, sequela

This code signifies a long-term health condition or complication resulting from injuries sustained by military personnel due to the detonation of an aerial bomb during wartime. It indicates that the current medical issue is a direct consequence of that specific past event.

Apply this code when documenting a current diagnosis or condition in a military veteran or active service member that is a sequela of an aerial bomb explosion during war operations. This includes chronic pain, neurological deficits, psychological disorders, or physical impairments directly attributable to the original injury.

• Always use this code as a secondary diagnosis, following the code for the specific sequela (e.g., T90.5XXS for sequela of intracranial injury).
• Ensure the patient's medical record clearly links the current condition to the past war-related aerial bomb explosion.
• The 7th character "S" indicates sequela, meaning the residual effects of an old injury, not the acute injury itself.
