Clinical significance. The surgical neck is much more frequently fractured than the anatomical neck of the humerus. This type of fracture takes place when the humerus is forced in one direction while the joint capsule and the rotator cuff muscles remain intact.
2022 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code S62. 329B: Displaced fracture of shaft of unspecified metacarpal bone, initial encounter for open fracture.
2-PART FRACTURE: This is when the proximal humerus is broken into two pieces, meaning there is one fracture line on x-ray. Commonly, this will be a fracture of the greater tuberosity, which is the part of the humerus where the rotator cuff attaches.
Unspecified nondisplaced fracture of surgical neck of right humerus, initial encounter for closed fracture. S42. 214A is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes.
What Is a Displaced Proximal Humerus Fracture? When the bone is not in proper alignment, the fracture is called displaced. In proximal humerus fractures, the severity is often described by how many of the major parts of the proximal humerus fracture are displaced.
The anatomical neck of the humerus is located distal to the head of the humerus, at an oblique angle to the shaft of the humerus. The surgical neck of the humerus on the other hand is a constriction of the humerus located inferior to the greater and lesser tubercles.
Below the head of the humerus is the anatomical neck of the humerus, followed by the greater and lesser tubercles, which are projections in the bone. Underneath the tubercles is the surgical neck.
Displaced Fracture: bone breaks into two or more pieces and moves out of alignment. Non-Displaced Fracture: the bone breaks but does not move out of alignment. Closed Fracture: the skin is not broken.

The ICD-10-CM code T67.4 (Heat exhaustion due to salt depletion) requires an Episode of Care identifier.
A humerus fracture is a bone fracture of the arm. Fractures of the humerus may be classified by the location and divided into fractures of the upper end, the shaft, or the lower end.
