If an open fracture or dislocation is not present, use a code from the 11042–11047 series. Open fractures often require some debridement of the skin, subcutaneous tissue, muscle, and/or bone. Use these codes only when significant debridement of tissue is necessary.
What is a distal radius fracture? The distal radius is the end (distal) portion of the forearm bone (radius). It connects to the carpal bones at the wrist and runs parallel to the ulna, which is the other bone of the forearm. The radius transmits up to 80% of the forces across the wrist to the forearm.
Patients were identified by an electronic procedural code search for distal radius ORIF (CPT 25607, 25608, and 25609).
