The purpose of this study was to explore a novel oblique triangle configuration (OTC) of three screws in fixing femoral neck fractures based on the morphology of the femoral neck isthmus (FNI). The computer-aided design modules were used to explore the ...
Displaced oblique fracture of shaft of unspecified fibula, subsequent encounter for closed fracture with routine healing. S82. 433D 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 S82.
2022 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code S82. 832A: Other fracture of upper and lower end of left fibula, initial encounter for closed 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.
ICD-10 Code for Unspecified fracture of shaft of right fibula- S82. 401- Codify by AAPC.
The proximal fibula is the insertion point for the biceps femoris posterolaterally, the soleus posteriorly, and the peroneus longus and extensor digitorum longus anteiorly.
ICD-10 code S52. 501A for Unspecified fracture of the lower end of right radius, initial encounter for closed fracture is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Injury, poisoning and certain other consequences of external causes .
An oblique fracture is when the break is on an angle through the bone. A pathologic fracture is caused by a disease that weakens the bone.
At its most proximal part, it is at the knee just posterior to the proximal tibia, running distally on the lateral side of the leg where it becomes the lateral malleolus at the level 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).
The lateral malleolus is the distal end of the fibula, whereas the medial and posterior malleoli are part of the tibia.
fibula, outer of two bones of the lower leg or hind limb, presumably so named (fibula is Latin for “brooch”) because the inner bone, the tibia, and the fibula together resemble an ancient brooch, or pin. In humans the head of the fibula is joined to the head of the tibia by ligaments and does not form part of the knee.
lower legTibia and fibula are the two long bones located in the lower leg. The tibia is a larger bone on the inside, and the fibula is a smaller bone on the outside. The tibia is much thicker than the fibula. It is the main weight-bearing bone of the two.
