ICD-10-CM Code S62.396 Other fracture of fifth metacarpal bone, right hand. ICD Code S62.396 is a non-billable code. To code a diagnosis of this type, you must use specify a 7th character that describes the diagnosis 'other fracture of fifth metacarpal bone, right hand' in more detail.
Short description: Nondisp fx of shaft of fifth metacarpal bone, right hand The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM S62.356 became effective on October 1, 2021. This is the American ICD-10-CM version of S62.356 - other international versions of ICD-10 S62.356 may differ.
The ICD code S623 is used to code Boxer's fracture Boxer's Fracture is a colloquial term for a fracture of one of the metacarpal bones of the hand. Classically, the fracture occurs transversely across the neck of the bone, after the patient strikes an object with a closed fist. Alternate terms include Scrapper's fracture or Bar Room fracture.
306 for Unspecified fracture of fifth metacarpal bone, right hand is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Injury, poisoning and certain other consequences of external causes .
A boxer's fracture is a break in the neck of the 5th metacarpal bone in the hand. It gets its name because the injury is common in inexperienced boxers. The metacarpal bones are the intermediate bones of the hand found inside the flat part of the hand.
Each metacarpal bone consists of a body or shaft, and two extremities: the head at the distal or digital end (near the fingers), and the base at the proximal or carpal end (close to the wrist).
The fifth metacarpal bone (metacarpal bone of the little finger or pinky finger) is the most medial and second-shortest of the metacarpal bones.
A metacarpal fracture. Is a break in one of the five metacarpal bones of either hand. Are categorized as being fractures of the head, neck, shaft, and base (from distal at the metacarpal phalangeal joint to proximal. at the wrist).
The fifth metatarsal is the long bone on the outside of the foot that connects to the small toe.
In humans the metatarsal bones, those of the foot proper, are larger than the corresponding bones of the hands, the metacarpal bones. The tarsals and metatarsals form the arches of the foot, which give it strength and enable it to act as a lever.
The hand contains five metacarpal bones that articulate proximally with the carpals and distally with the proximal phalanges. They are numbered moving lateral to medial, and start with the thumb, which is metacarpal I, and end with metacarpal V, the little finger.
The metacarpals of the fingers make up the bone structure of most of the hand. They are all similar in shape and have joints in the wrist on one end, and the finger at the other end. The index and middle finger metacarpals have very little motion, while the metacarpals of the ring and little finger move much more.
Uncomplicated fifth metacarpal fractures are usually treated with either immobilisation and splinting or neighbour strapping, with a comparable degree of functional results. Fractures with significant angulation require closed reduction and application of splint.
A boxer's fracture is when you break a bone at the base of your finger, near the knuckle or neck of the bone. That bone is known as a metacarpal. A boxer's fracture may also be called fifth metacarpal fracture. It usually happens to the small (pinky) finger or the ring finger and is most common in men.
Bennett fracture is the most common fracture involving the base of the thumb. This fracture refers to an intraarticular fracture that separates the palmar ulnar aspect of the first metacarpal base from the remaining first metacarpal.
Rolando fractures are intra-articular fractures of the base of the first metacarpal with the detachment of several fragments - typically three. • Rolando fractures account for 21% of fractures of the base of the first metacarpal.
A Colles fracture is a break in the radius close to the wrist. It was named for the surgeon who first described it. Typically, the break is located about an inch (2.5 centimeters) below where the bone joins the wrist. A Colles fracture is a common fracture that happens more often in women than men.
A phalanx is any bone of the fingers or toes. A phalanx fracture is a crack or complete break in one of these bones. A phalanx fracture can happen when your finger or toe is hit, pulled, jammed, crushed, or twisted. It is also possible for a tumor or cyst to weaken the bone, causing it to break easily when injured.
For codes less than 6 characters that require a 7th character a placeholder 'X' should be assigned for all characters less than 6. The 7th character must always be the 7th position of a code. E.g. The ICD-10-CM code T67.4 (Heat exhaustion due to salt depletion) requires an Episode of Care identifier.
Boxer's Fracture is a colloquial term for a fracture of one of the metacarpal bones of the hand. Classically, the fracture occurs transversely across the neck of the bone, after the patient strikes an object with a closed fist. Alternate terms include Scrapper's fracture or Bar Room fracture.
