2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code G83.32 – Monoplegia, unspecified affecting left dominant side

What it is

This code identifies monoplegia, meaning paralysis or severe weakness limited to one limb, affecting the left dominant side. Use it when documentation specifies the side and dominance but does not name a more precise cause.

Clinical signs

You may see marked loss of movement, reduced strength, or near-complete inability to use one arm or leg. Clinical features vary; refer to documentation.

When to use this code

Use G83.32 when the provider documents monoplegia of the left dominant side and does not specify a more detailed neurologic diagnosis. It may appear after stroke, brain injury, or other neurologic conditions, but you should code the documented condition first when instructed. Check documentation if dominance or laterality is unclear.

Do not use for

Do not use this code for general weakness, hemiplegia, or paralysis affecting more than one limb. If the record does not state dominant side involvement, check documentation.

Coding tip

Verify laterality and dominance carefully, because these details determine whether G83.32 is the correct option.
