ICD-10-CM Code for Fracture of sacrum S32. 1.
A sacral fracture occurs when a bone called the sacrum breaks. The sacrum is a large triangular bone at the bottom of the spine. It fits like a wedge between the two hip bones. The sacrum is made up of the sacral vertebrae, which are fused together. Sometimes the coccyx, or tailbone, is fractured along with the sacrum.
The Denis classification: zone I fracture involves the sacral ala lateral to the foramina; zone II fracture at the level of the foramina; zone III fracture affects the sacral canal medial to the neural foramina.
A: The 3 zones (Zone I, alar region fracture; Zone II, foraminal region fracture; Zone III, central canal region fracture). B: Zone II fracture going through the sacral foramina.
Sacral fractures are common pelvic ring injuries that are under-diagnosed and often associated with neurologic compromise.
Overview. The sacrum is a shield-shaped bony structure that is located at the base of the lumbar vertebrae and that is connected to the pelvis. The sacrum forms the posterior pelvic wall and strengthens and stabilizes the pelvis.
Zone 2 sacral fractures are reported to range between 34 and 47.5% of all sacral fractures. Denis originally described the influence of fracture zone on neurological deficit and prognosis, with zone 2 fractures characterized by injury to the L5 through lower sacral nerve roots.
Denis classification zone 3: fracture is medial to the neural foramen, involving the spinal canal; these may be transverse or longitudinal, and can be sub-classified into 4 types: type 1: only kyphotic angulation at the fracture site (no translation)
Its name means sacred bone. At the top of the sacrum there are wings from each side called the sacral ala. At the ala, the sacrum fits between the two halves of the pelvis. These pelvic bones are called the iliac bones. This is where the sacroiliac joints are formed.
Transverse fractures of the sacrum with anterior displacement are the rarest type of transverse sacral fractures. They usually occur at the S1–S2 region in suicide jumpers. A clinical study was performed to evaluate the diagnosis, treatment and outcome of transverse sacral fractures with anterior displacement.
It articulates with the fifth lumbar vertebra, the os coxae, and the coccyx.
The word "sacrum", meaning "sacred" in Latin, lives on in English anatomy as the name for the large heavy bone at the base of the spine. The Romans called the bone the "os sacrum," which literally meant the "holy bone" and the Greeks termed it the "hieron osteon," the same thing, the "holy bone".
