metacarpal, any of several tubular bones between the wrist (carpal) bones and each of the forelimb digits in land vertebrates, corresponding to the metatarsal bones of the foot.
The Fourth Metacarpal Bone (os metacarpale IV; metacarpal bone of the ring finger) is shorter and smaller than the third. The base is small and quadrilateral; its superior surface presents two facets, a large one medially for articulation with the hamate, and a small one laterally for the capitate.
2011 ICD-9-CM Diagnosis Code 815.00 : Closed fracture of metacarpal bone(s) site unspecified.
In humans the metatarsal bones, those of the foot proper, are larger than the corresponding bones of the hands, the metacarpal bones. The tarsals and metatarsals form the arches of the foot, which give it strength and enable it to act as a lever.
Even though the metacarpal bones are small, they are classified as long bones since they have structural characteristics of long bones; each metacarpal bone consists of a shaft, distal head and a wide proximal base.
Besides the metacarpophalangeal joints, the metacarpal bones articulate by carpometacarpal joints as follows:the first with the trapezium;the second with the trapezium, trapezoid, capitate and third metacarpal;the third with the capitate and second and fourth metacarpals;More items...
A boxer's fracture is a break in the neck of the 5th metacarpal bone in the hand. It usually happens when you punch an object at a high speed. Symptoms of a boxer's fracture include pain and swelling of the hand, limited range of motion of the pinky finger, and misalignment of the finger.
Fracture of the fifth metacarpal neck is the most common metacarpal fracture. It often occurs a result of a punch injury and is thus commonly referred to as a “boxer's fracture.” These fractures are relatively easy to reduce, and a certain amount of angulation is permissible before splinting.

ICD Code S62.305 is a non-billable code. To code a diagnosis of this type, you must use specify a 7th character that describes the diagnosis 'unspecified fracture of fourth metacarpal bone, left hand' in more detail. The 7th characters that can be added, and the resulting billable codes, are as follows:
