Fracture of femur ICD-10-CM S72. 309A is grouped within Diagnostic Related Group(s) (MS-DRG v39.0):
Proximal femoral fractures are a subset of fractures that occur in the hip region. They tend to occur in older patients, and in those who have osteoporosis.
Proximal femoral fractures are a heterogeneous group of fractures that occur in and around the hip. The commonest type of fracture in this region is the femoral neck fracture. They can occur anywhere between the joint surface of the femoral head and the upper shaft (proximal diaphysis) of the femur.
ICD-10-CM S72. 002A is grouped within Diagnostic Related Group(s) (MS-DRG v39.0): 521 Hip replacement with principal diagnosis of hip fracture with mcc. 522 Hip replacement with principal diagnosis of hip fracture without mcc.
Proximal femur includes the femoral head, neck and the region 5-cm distal to the lesser trochanter. There is a 125°–130° inclination angle between the head and neck and the femoral body. Further, there is a 15° anteversion angle between the plane passing through the condyles of the femoral head and the femur neck.
A hip fracture happens when the upper part of the thighbone breaks. Older people and people with osteoporosis are more likely to break a hip. Surgery and physical therapy can help some people with a broken hip regain mobility and independence.
Proximally, the femur articulates with the pelvic bone. Distally, it interacts with the patella and the proximal aspect of the tibia.
Proximal femoral replacement is one method of treating the severely deficient proximal part of the femur. The present report describes the outcomes of revision total hip arthroplasty with use of a proximal femoral replacement in a cohort of patients who had a Vancouver type-B3 periprosthetic fracture.
Distal Femur (Thighbone) Fractures of the Knee. A fracture is a broken bone. Fractures of the thighbone that occur just above the knee joint are called distal femur fractures. The distal femur is where the bone flares out like an upside-down funnel. The distal femur is the area of the leg just above the knee joint.
ICD-10 Code for Unspecified fracture of right femur, initial encounter for closed fracture- S72. 91XA- Codify by AAPC.
ICD-10 Code for Displaced intertrochanteric fracture of left femur- S72. 142- Codify by AAPC.
ICD-10 code S72. 145 for Nondisplaced intertrochanteric fracture of left femur is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Injury, poisoning and certain other consequences of external causes .
Intertrochanteric hip fracture: An intertrochanteric hip fracture occurs three to four inches from the hip joint. This type of fracture does not interrupt the blood supply to the bone and may be easier to repair.
Proximal femoral replacement is one method of treating the severely deficient proximal part of the femur. The present report describes the outcomes of revision total hip arthroplasty with use of a proximal femoral replacement in a cohort of patients who had a Vancouver type-B3 periprosthetic fracture.
Anatomically speaking, the subtrochanteric region of the femur is defined as the interval between the lesser trochanter and approximately 5 cm below it, toward the isthmus of the femur [1, 13]. Subtrochanteric fractures are relatively common, accounting for approximately 10% to 30% of all hip fractures [4, 16].
The proximal femoral nail (PFN) is an osteosynthetic implant designed to treat proximal femoral fractures in the trochanter area with a closed intramedullary fixation method.
Fracture of femur S72- 1 A traumatic or pathologic injury to the femur in which the continuity of the femur is broken. 2 Breaks or rupture in bone situated between the hip and the knee, the femur. 3 Fractures of the femur.
Breaks or rupture in bone situated between the hip and the knee, the femur.
