Codes: For our rib diagnoses, remember that the index pointed us to S22.3- and S22.4-.
An open fracture is one where the bone punctures the skin or there is a significant break in the skin (not an abrasion or superficial laceration) at the fracture site. A closed fracture does not break the skin.
S22.4- has the same seventh character options as S22.3-, meaning that you need to know whether the fracture is open or closed to accurately code the initial encounter diagnosis.

A rib fracture is a break or fracture in one or more of the bones making up the rib cage. Fractures of the first and second ribs may be more likely to be associated with head and facial injuries than other rib fractures. The middle ribs are the ones most commonly fractured.
Rib fractures are usually quite painful because the ribs have to move to allow for breathing. When several ribs are broken in several places a flail chest results, and the detached bone sections will move separately from the rest of the chest. Specialty: Emergency Medicine. MeSH Codes:
