Unspecified superficial injury of left little finger, initial encounter. S60. 947A is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM S60.
Proximal phalanges (foot) are the largest bones in the toe. They form the base of the toe and are a separate bone from the middle phalanges (the center bones in the toes) and the distal phalanges (the bones at the tip of the toes). They are connected to the metatarsals, or long bones in the feet, by cartilage.
Proximal phalanx fractures can be epiphyseal or shaft fractures and can be intra-articular or extra-articular. They are most often the result of forced rotation, hyperextension or direct trauma 2.
S61.219AICD-10 code S61. 219A for Laceration without foreign body of unspecified finger without damage to nail, initial encounter is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Injury, poisoning and certain other consequences of external causes .
The proximal phalanges (hand) are the bones that are found at the bottom of the finger. They are named proximal because they are the closest phalanges to the metacarpals. There are fourteen phalanges in each hand. Three are located in each long finger, and two are located in the thumb.
The base end of the proximal phalanx is concave in shape where it connects to the metatarsal bone. The head of the proximal phalanx connects to the intermediate phalanx in a trochlear fashion that allows for articulation.
The phalanges (single: phalanx) of the hands are the tubular bones of the fingers and thumb. The second to fifth fingers each contain a proximal, middle and distal phalanx whereas the thumb only contains a proximal and distal phalanx.
Proximal phalanx fracture - undisplaced If your proximal phalanx fracture is stable and undisplaced (ie the fragments are still in their normal position) it is unlikely that you will need surgery. Your fracture can be treated with splinting, taping or casting (or a combination of all three of these).
The lumbricals are 4 muscles that arise from the tendons of flexor digitorum profundus. Their tendons insert into the radial side of each of the proximal phalanges of the fingers and into the dorsal hood. They flex the metacarpophalangeal joints and extend the interphalangeal joints.
Laceration without foreign body of left index finger without damage to nail, sequela. S61. 211S is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes.
The types of open wounds classified in ICD-10-CM are laceration without foreign body, laceration with foreign body, puncture wound without foreign body, puncture wound with foreign body, open bite, and unspecified open wound. For instance, S81. 812A Laceration without foreign body, right lower leg, initial encounter.
A finger laceration is a deep cut in the skin of a finger, sometimes going deep enough to injure tendons and nerves.
The proximal phalanx of the fingers is the proximal, or first bone, in the fingers when counting from the hand to the tip of the finger. There are three phalanges in each finger. The proximal phalanx is the largest of the three bones in each finger; it has joints with the metacarpal and with the middle phalanx.
The proximal phalanx is the toe bone that is closest to the metatarsals. Because it is the longest of the toe bones, it is the most likely to fracture. A fractured toe may become swollen, tender and discolored. If the bone is out of place, your toe will appear deformed.
Proximal phalanx fractures will often be clinically healed 4 weeks status post injury, at which time it is unlikely that the fracture will displace.
In this case, the phalanx fracture is non displaced and there are no surgical indications. The treatment of choice is a rigid surgical shoe for support and protection for around 4 to 6 weeks. No treatment is incorrect and undertreating the injury. Cast and non weight bearing is over treating.
