080D for Wedge compression fracture of T11-T12 vertebra, subsequent encounter for fracture with routine healing is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Injury, poisoning and certain other consequences of external causes .
ICD-10-CM Code for Wedge compression fracture of first lumbar vertebra, initial encounter for closed fracture S32. 010A.
A T12 or L1 compression fracture most commonly happens as a wedge fracture, which occurs when the front part of the vertebra collapses and the back doesn't, making the bone look like a wedge. Osteoporosis, which causes decreased bone density, is a common risk factor for compression fractures.
The spinal compression deformity is not the same as a spinal compression fracture. A patient may have a compression fracture without the deformity.
ICD-10-CM Code for Wedge compression fracture of unspecified thoracic vertebra, initial encounter for closed fracture S22. 000A.
In ICD-10-CM, codes for compression and pathologic fractures of the spine (not due to trauma) are located in Chapter 13, Diseases of the Musculoskeletal System and Connective Tissue. Category M48. 5-, Collapsed vertebra, not elsewhere classifiable is used for vertebrae fracture where no cause is listed.
Where is the T12 Vertebra Located? The T12 vertebra sits right above the lumbar spinal column. It is the largest and most inferior of the thoracic spinal vertebrae. The T12 vertebrae location is between the T11 vertebra and the first lumbar vertebra, L1, in the trunk region.
Vertebral compression fractures (VCFs) occur when the bony block or vertebral body in the spine collapses, which can lead to severe pain, deformity and loss of height. These fractures more commonly occur in the thoracic spine (the middle portion of the spine), especially in the lower part.
Compression fractures of the spine usually occur at the bottom part of the thoracic spine (T11 and T12) and the first vertebra of the lumbar spine (L1). Compression fractures of the spine generally occur from too much pressure on the vertebral body.
The L1 vertebra is located in the spinal column of the lumbar (lower back) region inferior to the T12 vertebra and superior to the L2 vertebra. Like the other lumbar vertebrae, L1 has a large, roughly cylindrical region of bone known as the body, or centrum, which makes up most of its mass.
lumbar spinal columnThe L1 vertebra is the topmost section of the lumbar spinal column. This section of the spine contains a portion of the spinal cord.
This deformity occurs when the body of the vertebra becomes fragmented as in fracture crush, or when the bone becomes sufficiently softened from pathologic processes so that the body weight compresses the vertebra from above downward.
Treatment of compression fractures may include medicine, rest, a back brace, or physical therapy. Sometimes, surgery is needed. The risk of new fractures can be reduced by doing regular weight-bearing exercises that increase strength, and balance exercises that reduce the risk for falls.
At T12, the ventral ramus becomes a subcostal nerve that travels beneath the twelfth rib. At T1 through T12, the dorsal ramus goes into the back muscles and also provides sensation to the skin. The motor and sensory functions provided by a thoracic nerve root are determined by its vertebral level.
What Are the Symptoms of Thoracic Spine Nerve Damage?Significant leg weakness or loss of sensation.Loss of feeling in genitals or rectal region.No control of urine or stool.Fever and lower back pain.A fall or injury that caused the pain.
Anterior wedging of T12. An abnormality of the shape of the thoracic vertebra T12 such that it is wedge-shaped (narrow towards the front).
