A boxer's fracture is a break in the neck of the 5th metacarpal bone in the hand. It usually happens when you punch an object at a high speed. Symptoms of a boxer's fracture include pain and swelling of the hand, limited range of motion of the pinky finger, and misalignment of the finger.
pinky fingerThe fifth metacarpal bone (metacarpal bone of the little finger or pinky finger) is the most medial and second-shortest of the metacarpal bones.
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.
The fifth metatarsal is the long bone on the outside of the foot that connects to the small toe. Fracture are common in this bone, but can happen in different areas.
Boxer fracture is another name for a fracture of the fourth or fifth metacarpal, one of the most common metacarpal fractures.
The metacarpal bones are the long slender bones which connect your wrist to your fingers and are roughly at the level of your palm. There is one metacarpal for each finger. Fractures are “breaks” or “cracks” in the bone, usually due to trauma. In severe injuries, multiple metacarpals can be fractured.
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.
Fractures are coded using the appropriate 7th character extension for subsequent care for encounters after the patient has completed active treatment of the fracture and is receiving routine care for the fracture during the healing or recovery phase.
S62.91XAICD-10 code S62. 91XA for Unspecified fracture of right wrist and hand, initial encounter for closed fracture is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Injury, poisoning and certain other consequences of external causes .
The general consensus is to use the fracture care codes designated as “closed treatment without manipulation” and bill the initial E/M with modifier 57.
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.
