- There are two types of humerus fractures based on the location of the break (s).
- Trauma from a fall or accident are often the cause of this type of fracture.

Do I need distal radial fracture surgery?
Surgery for Distal Radius Fractures This option is usually for fractures that are considered unstable or can’t be treated with a cast. Surgery is typically performed through an incision over the volar aspect of your wrist (where you feel your pulse). This allows full access to the break.
Should angulated distal radius fractures be reduced?
When distal radius fractures are not simple fracture patterns, reduction may best be performed in the hands of an orthopedist or hand surgeon. Highly comminuted intra-articular fractures are unstable in anyone’s hands and will require surgery.
What is a displaced distal fibula fracture?
Isolated distal fibula fractures represent the majority of ankle fractures. These fractures are often the result of a low-energy trauma with external rotation and supination mechanism. Diagnosis is based on clinical signs and radiographic exam.
What is the ICD-10 code for displaced fracture?
2022 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code S62. 329B: Displaced fracture of shaft of unspecified metacarpal bone, initial encounter for open fracture.
Where is the distal fibula?
lateral ankleInitially, it is a triangular shape and distally becomes more irregularly shaped. The distal end of the fibula forms the lateral malleolus which articulates with the lateral talus, creating part of the lateral ankle. The posterior and lateral tibia form the posterior and medial malleolus, respectively.
What is a left distal fibula fracture?
Synopsis. Distal fibula fracture, the most common type of ankle fracture, is an isolated malleolar fracture (70% or greater); the majority of these are lateral malleolus fractures. Distal fibula fractures can affect adult patient of any age as well as children.
What is the difference between a displaced and nondisplaced fracture?
Displaced Fracture: bone breaks into two or more pieces and moves out of alignment. Non-Displaced Fracture: the bone breaks but does not move out of alignment. Closed Fracture: the skin is not broken.
What is a community fracture?
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.
Is the distal fibula part of the ankle?
The distal end of the fibula forms the lateral malleolus of the lower limb. This is a bony projection noted on the lateral surface of the ankle, which is complementary to another bony projection on the medial aspect of the ankle called the medial malleolus (formed by the tibia).
Is distal fibula the same as lateral malleolus?
The distal ends of the fibula and tibia that overlap the talus are known as the malleoli (“little hammers”). The lateral malleolus is the distal end of the fibula, whereas the medial and posterior malleoli are part of the tibia.
What is the ICD 10 code for right distal fibula fracture?
Unspecified physeal fracture of lower end of right fibula, initial encounter for closed fracture. S89. 301A 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 S89.
What is a displaced fracture?
Displaced fractures: A gap forms where the bone breaks. Often, this injury requires surgery to fix. Partial fractures: The break doesn't go all the way through the bone. Stress fractures: The bone gets a crack in it, which is sometimes tough to find with imaging.
What is a distal tibia and fibula fracture?
This is a fracture in the metaphysis, the part of tibia before it reaches its widest point. These fractures are usually transverse (across) or oblique (slanted) breaks in the bone. Distal tibial metaphyseal fractures usually heal well after setting them without surgery and applying a cast.
What is a Weber a distal fibula fracture?
A Weber A is a simple fracture to the bottom part of the fibula (bone on the outer part of your leg). Fortunately, your fracture is minor and does not require an operation or plaster cast to treat it successfully. You will be given a special ankle support, which can be worn over your socks.
