More than one grade of splenic injury may be present and should be classified by the higher grade of injury. Advance one grade for multiple injuries up to grade III.

Vascular thrombosis can lead to organ infarction. Grade based on highest grade assessment made on imaging, at operation or on pathologic specimen. More than one grade of splenic injury may be present and should be classified by the higher grade of injury. Advance one grade for multiple injuries up to grade III.
Liver laceration is a physical injury to the liver, the organ located below the right ribs. It is the most commonly injured organ in abdominal trauma from both blunt and penetrating sources. A liver laceration is a tear in the liver tissue.

Savage et al indicated that splenic healing occurs within 2 to 2.5 months, regardless of the severity of initial injury, but they stressed the importance of clinical correlation. Within the pediatric surgical literature, multiple authors support 3 months for healing prior to return to activity.

A grade III laceration is characterized by a laceration that is > 3 cm of parenchymal depth, a subcapsular hematoma that is > 50% surface area of ruptured subcapsular or parenchymal hematoma, and an intraparenchymal hematoma that is > 10 cm or expanding. 13.
Healing of a simple liver laceration and subcapsular hematoma occurs in 2 to 4 months, whereas complex injuries require up to 6 months.
Fortunately, most liver injuries are treated without surgery. Depending on the grade of injury, treatment can include strict bed rest, nothing to eat or drink for a short period of time, pain control, lab work, and IV fluid hydration. Blood transfusions can sometimes also be necessary.
The ICD-10-CM Tabular lists measurements for each of the three definitions. There is also a 3M Nosology note in the encoder. Coders are instructed to follow these guides and should query if the documentation doesn't provide a laceration depth/length.

According to our software vendor, you can only code liver lacerations as minor, moderate, or major. According to all the educational materials I can find, however, liver lacerations are on a grading scale (grades 1-5). How does your institution code the liver laceration if they only give measurements of the lacerations?
