ICD-10-CM Code for Other specified fracture of left pubis, initial encounter for closed fracture S32. 592A.
Superior and inferior pubic ramus fracture. Unstable fracture. In this type of fracture, there are usually two or more breaks in the pelvic ring and the ends of the broken bones do not line up correctly (displacement). This type of fracture is more likely to occur due to a high-energy event.
The pubic rami are a group of bones that make up a portion of the pelvis. A pubic ramus fracture is a break in one of these bones. Please note that there is no difference between a fracture and a break. Iliac bone.
pelvisThe pubic rami are a group of bones that make up part of the pelvis.
The superior pubic ramus is the upper of the two rami. It forms the upper edge of the obturator foramen. It extends from the body to the median plane where it joins with the ramus of the opposite side. It consists of an inner flattened part and a narrow outer prismoid portion. Medial surface.
It affords attachment to the inguinal falx, and to the Rectus abdominis and Pyramidalis. The point of junction of the crest with the medial border of the bone is called the angle; to it, as well as to the symphysis, the superior crus of the subcutaneous inguinal ring is attached.
The anterior and inferior part of the hip bone is the pubis or pubic bone. This bone is the smallest component of the hip bone. It is divided into three main parts: body, superior ramus, and inferior ramus.
The pubis is one of the three main bones that make up the pelvis. It's also called the pubic bone or the pelvic girdle. The pelvis is a structure located between the abdomen and thighs. The pubis is the most forward-facing bone of the pelvic bones.
It usually occurs as a sports injury due to overuse of the hip and leg muscles. It's particularly common in athletes who play sports like soccer or hockey that involve changing direction, kicking, or pivoting. Osteitis pubis can be treated, but recovery may take a long time.
The anterior pelvic ring mainly consists of the pubic bone. Beginning at the symphysis it divides into two branches, the superior and inferior pubic rami.
Symptoms. Athletes with a pubic ramus stress fracture begin to experience slight groin pain that gets worse over time and increases with activity. At first, you may have pain only while practicing your sport. If the fracture goes untreated, it can begin to cause pain with simple weight bearing and then even at rest.
The inferior pubic ramus (plural: inferior pubic rami) is part of the pubis. It forms the border of the urogenital region of the pelvic outlet, running between the pubic tubercle and ischial tuberosity.
Conclusion. Pubic ramus fractures without involvement of the posterior pelvis (FFP Type I) are serious adverse events for elderly persons. During follow-up, there is an excess mortality, a loss of independence, a restricted mobility, and a decreased quality of life.
The pubic rami can break (fracture) either from repetitive stress (known as a stress fracture) or from a collision injury (known as a traumatic fracture).
With a broken pelvis you cannot walk, sit or move well without pain. The pelvis protects the bladder, intestines and many important blood vessels. Many of the important leg muscles and abdominal muscles attach to the pelvis and allow for body motion and function.
A stress fracture of the pubic ramus causes pain in the groin. This pain is usually in a specific point in the groin (the site of the fracture) and often gradually worsens over a period of weeks. At first your pain may have only been present following activity or exercise.
ICD Code S32.51 is a non-billable code. To code a diagnosis of this type, you must use one of the three child codes of S32.51 that describes the diagnosis 'fracture of superior rim of pubis' in more detail.
The ICD code S32 is used to code Abdominal trauma. Abdominal trauma is an injury to the abdomen. It may be blunt or penetrating and may involve damage to the abdominal organs. Signs and symptoms include abdominal pain, tenderness, rigidity, and bruising of the external abdomen. Abdominal trauma presents a risk of severe blood loss and infection.
S32.51. Non-Billable means the code is not sufficient justification for admission to an acute care hospital when used a principal diagnosis. Use a child code to capture more detail. ICD Code S32.51 is a non-billable code.
S32.511D is a valid billable ICD-10 diagnosis code for Fracture of superior rim of right pubis, subsequent encounter for fracture with routine healing . It is found in the 2021 version of the ICD-10 Clinical Modification (CM) and can be used in all HIPAA-covered transactions from Oct 01, 2020 - Sep 30, 2021 .
Use S32.511D for subsequent encounter for fracture with routine healing
S32.511D is exempt from POA reporting ( Present On Admission).
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.
Abdominal trauma is an injury to the abdomen. It may be blunt or penetrating and may involve damage to the abdominal organs. Signs and symptoms include abdominal pain, tenderness, rigidity, and bruising of the external abdomen. Abdominal trauma presents a risk of severe blood loss and infection.
