To code a diagnosis of this type, you must use one of the seven child codes of S92.0 that describes the diagnosis 'fracture of calcaneus' in more detail. Calcaneal fracture, also known as lover's fracture and Don Juan fracture, is a fracture of the calcaneus. It is usually caused by a fall from height when one lands on their feet.
Comminuted fracture of shaft of femur. The 2019 edition of ICD-10-CM S72.35 became effective on October 1, 2018. This is the American ICD-10-CM version of S72.35 - other international versions of ICD-10 S72.35 may differ.
ICD-10-CM Code for Fracture of calcaneus S92. 0.
BDICs are highly comminuted calcaneal fractures that constitute the most severe portion of Sanders type IV calcaneal fractures. This type of injury features a significant loss of height, shortening and widening of the calcaneus, and the collapse of the articular surfaces, especially the posterior articular surface.
Displaced comminuted fracture of shaft of unspecified femur, initial encounter for closed fracture. S72. 353A 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 S72.
Calcaneal fractures can be divided into two groups: intra-articular and extra-articular calcaneal fractures. Intra-articular fractures have a lower prognosis. To determine the kind of fracture and if there is a fracture, medical imaging is needed.
The calcaneus is an irregular bone, cuboid in shape whose superior surface can be divided into three areas - the posterior, middle and anterior aspects.
An intraarticular calcaneal fracture is a fracture that occurs in the heel usually due to a high-impact injury, such as a car accident or falling from a ladder.
Comminuted fractures are a type of broken bone. The term comminuted fracture refers to a bone that is broken in at least two places. Comminuted fractures are caused by severe traumas like car accidents. You will need surgery to repair your bone, and recovery can take a year or longer. Appointments 216.444.2606.
Displaced and non-displaced fractures refer to the alignment of the fractured bone. In a displaced fracture, the bone snaps into two or more parts and moves so that the two ends are not lined up straight. If the bone is in many pieces, it is called a comminuted fracture.
What makes a fracture “compound” or “open” is when the broken bone pierces your skin. If you happen to fall from a ladder and land on your arm, breaking it, you'll know it's a compound fracture if you can see the bone. “Simple” or “closed” fractures don't break through your skin.
Calcaneal fractures can be serious injuries that may produce lifelong problems. Arthritis, stiffness and pain in the joint frequently develop. Sometimes the fractured bone fails to heal in the proper position.
The name "lover's fracture" is derived from the fact that a suitor may jump from great heights while trying to escape from the lover's spouse 2. There is an important association between lover's fractures and burst fractures of the lumbar spine.
Symptoms. Symptoms of a heel fracture include pain, swelling and bruising of the heel. Patients usually are unable to walk.
With some minor calcaneus fractures, the pain may not be enough to prevent you from walking — but you may limp. This is because your Achilles tendon acts through the calcaneus to support your body weight.
Some, but not all, calcaneus fractures require surgery. The broken bone will take 3-4 months to heal with or without surgery. If surgery is not needed, there will still be a time where movement and weight bearing is limited.
Comminuted fractures are a type of broken bone. The term comminuted fracture refers to a bone that is broken in at least two places. Comminuted fractures are caused by severe traumas like car accidents. You will need surgery to repair your bone, and recovery can take a year or longer. Appointments 216.444.2606.
The calcaneus is the heel bone. Fractures or breaks of the calcaneus commonly occur after a fall from a height or car accident. Treatment of these fractures may require surgery. The goal of heel fracture surgery is to restore the shape of the heel bone as close to normal as possible.
