ICD-10 Code for Fracture of upper end of humerus- S42. 2- Codify by AAPC.
The top of the humerus forms part of the shoulder joint with its connection to the scapula (shoulder blade), and the bottom of the humerus forms part of the elbow with the forearm. The middle of the humerus is called the humeral shaft and fracture of this part of the bone is called a humeral shaft fracture.
The humerus is the bone in your upper arm that's located between your elbow and your shoulder. Its main function is to provide support for your shoulder and a wide variety of movements for your arm.
The fracture is reduced by manipulation and bone reduction forceps. A compression plate with screws secures and compresses the fragments. Cerclage wiring might be used to facilitate fixation of the fracture. One or more wires may be placed around the humerus, over the fracture site.
The physician makes a posterior incision from midline of the arm to just distal to the olecranon, exposing the olecranon, triceps tendon, and distal humerus. The ulnar nerve is isolated and retracted.
