ICD-10-CM Code S42.41 Simple supracondylar fracture without intercondylar fracture of humerus. ICD Code S42.41 is a non-billable code. To code a diagnosis of this type, you must use one of the six child codes of S42.41 that describes the diagnosis 'simple suprcndl fracture w/o intrcndl fracture of humerus' in more detail.
Displaced simple supracondylar fracture without intercondylar fracture of left humerus, initial encounter for closed fracture. S42.412A is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2021 edition of ICD-10-CM S42.412A became effective on October 1, 2020.
ICD-10-CM Code for Fracture of lower end of humerus S42. 4.
The humerus (HU mer us) bone is the long, thick bone in the upper arm that extends from the shoulder to the elbow. Your child's humerus is fractured (broken) near the elbow area, just above the joint. This is called a supracondylar (supra CON dy ler) humerus fracture.
Transcondylar fractures of the distal humerus of the adults are extra-articular fractures in which the single transverse fracture line is usually located at the level of the condyle or below. The fracture pattern is unique, and this type of fracture occurs only in about 9% of the distal humeral fractures.
ICD-10 code S52. 501A for Unspecified fracture of the lower end of right radius, 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 .
A supracondylar fracture is a type of elbow fracture common in young children. The location and cause of the fracture determine the type. A supracondylar fracture is a fracture in the upper arm just above the elbow joint. It is common but it can become dangerous if not treated properly.
Supracondylar fractures are initially divided into two types, depending on the direction of displacement of the distal fragment:Flexion-type (rare) - distal fragment is displaced anteriorly.Extension-type (98%) - distal fragment is displaced posteriorly.
Intercondylar fracture of the femur is an inherently dif- ficult injury to manage due to the thin cortices, frequently associated comminution and articular surface disruption. In the past two decades, numerous reports have shown that in- ternal fixation is a better option to non-operative treatment [1].
Intra-articular fractures of the distal humerus are complex injuries that can considerably limit elbow function if not treated appropriately. Surgical management is indicated for most intra-articular distal humerus fractures with the goal of restoring elbow range of motion and function.
Medical Definition of transcondylar : passing through a pair of condyles a transcondylar fracture of the humerus.

What is a distal radius fracture? The distal radius is the end (distal) portion of the forearm bone (radius). It connects to the carpal bones at the wrist and runs parallel to the ulna, which is the other bone of the forearm. The radius transmits up to 80% of the forces across the wrist to the forearm.

Use secondary code (s) from Chapter 20, External causes of morbidity, to indicate cause of injury. Codes within the T section that include the external cause do not require an additional external cause code. Type 1 Excludes.
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.
