S62.65 is a non-billable ICD-10 code for Nondisplaced fracture of middle phalanx of finger.
Displaced fracture of middle phalanx of other finger, subsequent encounter for fracture with routine healing Displaced fracture of middle phalanx of other finger, 7thD ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code S62.628G [convert to ICD-9-CM] Displaced fracture of middle phalanx of other finger, subsequent encounter for fracture with delayed healing
Use a child code to capture more detail. ICD Code S62.64 is a non-billable code. To code a diagnosis of this type, you must use one of the ten child codes of S62.64 that describes the diagnosis 'nondisplaced fracture of proximal phalanx of finger' in more detail.
S62.653 should not be used for reimbursement purposes as there are multiple codes below it that contain a greater level of detail. Short description: Nondisp fx of middle phalanx of left middle finger
602B for Fracture of unspecified phalanx of right middle finger, initial encounter for open fracture is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Injury, poisoning and certain other consequences of external causes .
Middle Phalanx Middle phalanx fractures occur in an apex dorsal or volar angulation depending on location. Apex dorsal angulation results from the fracture occurring proximal to the flexor digitorum superficialis (FDS) insertion so that the fragment becomes displaced by the pull of the central slip.
The joints on either side of the middle phalanx allow you to flex and hook your finger, which allows you to handle or manipulate items on a daily basis. Fractures in the middle phalanx are rare, but finger fractures in general are common due to the constant need and use for the finger.
Other intraarticular fracture of lower end of radius The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM S52. 57 became effective on October 1, 2021.
The middle phalanx of the finger is the middle or second of the three bones in each finger when counting from the hand to the tip of the finger. The middle phalanx has joints with the proximal phalanx and with the distal phalanx of the finger.
Undisplaced, or minimally displaced, fractures of the diaphysis of the proximal phalanx can be treated non- operatively. Most of these fractures produce an extension deformity and minimal shortening. If the extension deformity exceeds 15-20 degrees, operative treatment is recom- mended.
The break is in one of the three small bones in each finger. The fracture is nondisplaced, meaning the pieces of bone on either side of the break are not pushed out of place -- the pieces are in good position. Symptoms of a finger fracture include pain, bruising, and swelling around the break.
Intra-articular fractures of the base of the proximal phalanx (PP) usually occur following an abduction force most commonly seen in sports injuries or a fall. Displaced fractures may not be reducible conservatively because of collateral ligament avulsion which worsens the fracture displacement with MP flexion.
A nondisplaced fracture is one in which the bone cracks or breaks but retains its proper alignment. Nondisplaced fractures often require only bracing, booting or casting treatment.
Fracture of lower end of radius ICD-10-CM S52. 515A is grouped within Diagnostic Related Group(s) (MS-DRG v39.0):
324D: Nondisplaced transverse fracture of shaft of right radius, subsequent encounter for closed fracture with routine healing.
In ICD-10-CM a fracture not indicated as displaced or nondisplaced should be coded to displaced, and a fracture not designated as open or closed should be coded to closed. While the classification defaults to displaced for fractures, it is very important that complete documentation is encouraged.
Middle phalanx fracture - undisplaced Your fracture will be treated with splinting, taping or casting (or a combination of all three). Generally a cast is only used for treating middle phalangeal fractures if the patient is a child or someone who will not be able to manage with a splint.
Displaced fractures: A gap forms where the bone breaks. Often, this injury requires surgery to fix. Partial fractures: The break doesn't go all the way through the bone. Stress fractures: The bone gets a crack in it, which is sometimes tough to find with imaging.
Stable, nondisplaced toe fractures should be treated with buddy taping and a rigid-sole shoe to limit joint movement. Displaced fractures of the lesser toes should be treated with reduction and buddy taping. Patients with displaced fractures of the first toe often require referral for stabilization of the reduction.
Proximal phalanx fractures will often be clinically healed 4 weeks status post injury, at which time it is unlikely that the fracture will displace. A method of qualifying this is lack of discomfort when direct manual pressure is applied to the injured bone.
