T87.2: Complications of other reattached body part

You had health problems after the restoration of certain parts of your body.

If parts of the body have been severed, due to injury for example, the original condition can then be restored in some cases. The affected parts of the body can be fully reattached to each other through surgery.

You suffered health problems in the course of this type of restoration. After a restoration, the blood supply to the affected part of the body may not be adequate, for example. Wounds may also fail to heal correctly, or swelling may occur. During this process a particular pain disorder may also develop. This pain disorder involves the development of pains that cannot be explained by the original injury. If the injury or surgery involves damage to muscles, this can result in kidney damage. Certain muscle components can get into the kidneys via the blood and damage them.

Additional indicator

On medical documents, the ICD code is often appended by letters that indicate the diagnostic certainty or the affected side of the body.

  • G: Confirmed diagnosis
  • V: Tentative diagnosis
  • Z: Condition after
  • A: Excluded diagnosis
  • L: Left
  • R: Right
  • B: Both sides
