2022 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code S62. 329B: Displaced fracture of shaft of unspecified metacarpal bone, initial encounter for open fracture.
ICD-10-CM Code for Unspecified fracture of right patella, initial encounter for closed fracture S82. 001A.
ICD-10-CM Code for Unspecified fracture of left patella, initial encounter for closed fracture S82. 002A.
Fractures of the patella may result from either direct or indirect mechanisms. The classic indirect mechanism is a fall on the feet in which the quadriceps eccentrically fire to decelerate the body. When the force of the fall overwhelms the resistance to knee flexion, the extensor mechanism fails.
Nondisplaced osteochondral fracture of left patella, initial encounter for closed fracture. S82. 015A is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes.

The patella is a small bone located in front of the knee joint — where the thighbone (femur) and shinbone (tibia) meet. It protects the knee and connects the muscles in the front of the thigh to the tibia.

Avulsion fracture (chip fracture) of talus The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM S92. 15 became effective on October 1, 2021. This is the American ICD-10-CM version of S92. 15 - other international versions of ICD-10 S92.
Fractures of the inferior pole of the patella are a unique type of patellar fracture in which the patella is extra-articularly avulsed by the patellar tendon. Such fractures account for 5 to 22.4% of all patellar fractures [1, 2] and are usually comminuted [3].
The apex is the most inferior (lowest) part of the patella. It is pointed in shape, and gives attachment to the patellar ligament. The front and back surfaces are joined by a thin margin and towards centre by a thicker margin.
A bipartite kneecap occurs when the patella forms from two bones. Failure of fusion of these two bones during childhood leads to two separate bones. These bones are joined by cartilage. Most commonly, the smaller second bone is located at the upper and outer part of the patella.

A patella fracture is a fracture of the kneecap, which is one of the most common knee injuries. It is usually the result of a hard blow to the front of the knee. Treatment options for patella fracture include nonsurgical and surgical options, depending on the type of fracture.
Inclusion Terms are a list of concepts for which a specific code is used. The list of Inclusion Terms is useful for determining the correct code in some cases, but the list is not necessarily exhaustive.
Note: A fracture not indicated as displaced or nondisplaced should be coded to displaced A fracture not indicated as open or closed should be coded to closed The open fracture designations are based on the Gustilo open fracture classification
NEC Not elsewhere classifiable This abbreviation in the Tabular List represents “other specified”. When a specific code is not available for a condition, the Tabular List includes an NEC entry under a code to identify the code as the “other specified” code.
