Wiki Posterior dislocation of radius and ulna

I am looking for the ICD 10 code for "the radius and ulna are dislocated posteriorly relative to the distal humerus. No fractures are identified"
I found S53.125A (832.02) for the ulna. But what would I use for the radius or is it covered under S53.125A?
Did find S53.025 (832.02). Can I use this with the S53.125?
:confused:

Thanks
 
Is it traumatic? If so S53.12-- (requires 7 characters to identify laterality and initial/subsequent or sequel). This code covers radioulna.
