ICD-11 PL11.0 — Cut, puncture or tear, as mode of injury or harm

The cut or puncture occurs when a solid organ or blood vessel or nerve is unintentionally lacerated or otherwise damaged during a surgical or medical procedure. The cut or puncture must not be required for the successful completion of the procedure. A perforation occurs when a hollow viscous, such as the bowel or urinary bladder, is injured during a surgical procedure such that the contents of the viscous leak into the surrounding tissues or space.
