V87: Traffic accident of specified type but victim's mode of transport unknown
V87.1: Person injured in collision between other motor vehicle and two- or three-wheeled motor vehicle (traffic)
The ICD-10 code V87.1 pertains to injuries sustained in a collision involving a two- or three-wheeled motor vehicle and another kind of motor vehicle in traffic settings. This type of injury arises from an accident scenario where the victim is either an occupant of the two- or three-wheeled motor vehicle, such as a motorcycle or scooter, or an occupant of the other motor vehicle involved. The physical harm could range from minor bruises and abrasions to severe injuries including fractures, traumatic brain injuries, or internal organ damage. Symptoms depend on the severity and the location of the injury, and might include pain, swelling, visible wounds, loss of consciousness, or acute distress. The injury event is traumatic and sudden by nature, with the progression and eventual outcome heavily reliant on the immediate treatment provided and the body's healing response.
