Maxilla (upper jaw) fracture occurs as a result of blunt trauma, car accidents, running into an object or assault. These fractures are also called jaw fractures or Le Fort I fracture.
Maxillary sinus fractures (MSFs) are most commonly caused by blunt force trauma to the face. Depending on the magnitude and location of the direct injury, MSFs can vary in appearance and symptomatology.
Fracture of other specified skull and facial bones, unspecified side, subsequent encounter for fracture with routine healing. S02. 80XD is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes.
The maxilla is the bone that forms your upper jaw. The right and left halves of the maxilla are irregularly shaped bones that fuse together in the middle of the skull, below the nose, in an area known as the intermaxillary suture. The maxilla is a major bone of the face.
The answer to the question, “What type of bone is the maxilla bone?” is simple – it is an irregular facial bone. You can refer to the maxilla bone as a single unit or as two paired but fused bones.
two maxillary bonesThe two maxillary bones are fused at the intermaxillary suture, forming the anterior nasal spine. This is similar to the mandible (lower jaw), which is also a fusion of two mandibular bones at the mandibular symphysis. The mandible is the movable part of the jaw.
The primary bones of the face are the mandible, maxilla, frontal bone, nasal bones, and zygoma. Facial bone anatomy is complex, yet elegant, in its suitability to serve a multitude of functions. The image below provides an overview of the anterior features of the skull.
Le Fort Type II These fractures extend superiorly in the midface to include the nasal bridge, maxilla, lacrimal bones, orbital floor, and rim. They are pyramidal fractures with teeth at the base and nasal bone at the apex. These fractures are typically bilateral.
A sinus fracture is a break in one of the facial bones in the area of the frontal sinuses. It frequently occurs in the lower portion of the forehead where the bone is thinner than it is around the upper forehead and therefore more susceptible to fracture.
When a fracture involves the frontal sinus, you may notice a depression of the forehead. There may also be some bleeding from the nose. If the fracture involves the back wall of the frontal sinus it may cause leakage of the fluid surrounding the brain, cerebral spinal fluid (CSF).
Maxillary fractures are treated by reduction and immobilization. Establishment of preinjury occlusion and midface buttress alignment provides the foundation for this treatment. The goals of treatment of LeFort fractures are to reestablish preinjury occlusion with normal height and projection of the face.
Symptoms of a fracture to the face may include pain as well as bruising, swelling or tenderness. Symptoms of a nose fracture may include: Purplish patch on skin caused when blood leaks from broken blood vessels (also called bruising or ecchymosis). Discoloration under the eyes (“black eyes”).
In the surgical treatment of an isolated anterior wall of the maxillary sinus fracture, open reduction and ridged fixation is required. Large fragments can be fixed with plates and screws and small fragments can either be positioned at the bony defect or removed.
Maxillary fractures are common in patients sustaining facial trauma and may be caused by road traffic accidents, sports, or assault.
S02.401A is a billable ICD code used to specify a diagnosis of maxillary fracture, unspecified, initial encounter for closed fracture. A 'billable code' is detailed enough to be used to specify a medical diagnosis.
The ICD code S024 is used to code Facial trauma. Facial trauma, also called maxillofacial trauma, is any physical trauma to the face. Facial trauma can involve soft tissue injuries such as burns, lacerations and bruises, or fractures of the facial bones such as nasal fractures and fractures of the jaw, as well as trauma such as eye injuries.
Symptoms are specific to the type of injury; for example, fractures may involve pain, swelling, loss of function, or changes in the shape of facial structures.
