a spinal fracture, a collapsed lung and substantial pain, according to the complaint. The 84-year-old woman needed medical treatment at a local hospital, police said. The defendant, “knowing or having cause to know that personal injury had been caused ...
You may also have pain or numbness in your legs. In more severe cases, you may have difficulty controlling your bowel and bladder. There is no cure for lumbar spinal stenosis, but you have many treatment choices. What causes lumbar spinal stenosis?
Shooting pain in the buttocks and down the leg is one of the signs of lumbar stenosis and is usually due to compression of the nerves that control the lower part of the body as they exit the spinal canal. Pain in the buttocks that does not go away may also be indicative of other diseases and should, therefore, be examined and diagnosed by a doctor.
A pathological fracture is classified to code 733.1x, with a fifth digit identifying the fracture site. Pathological fractures often occur in the vertebra (733.13), hip (733.14), and wrist (distal radius or Colles' fracture, 733.12).
A pathologic fracture is a break in a bone that is caused by an underlying disease. At the Spine Hospital at the Neurological Institute of New York, we specialize in pathologic fractures of vertebrae, or bones of the spine. For the most part, bones need a reason to break–for example, a significant trauma.
ICD-10 code M80. 08XA for Age-related osteoporosis with current pathological fracture, vertebra(e), initial encounter for fracture is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Osteopathies and chondropathies .
Pathological spine fractures are the result of an underlying disease process that affects the spine. They are called vertebral compression fractures and are common, and frequent in the elderly. They may be caused by osteoporosis, Paget's disease, other diseases and spinal infections (osteomyelitis).
A pathological fracture is one in which breaks in the bone were caused by an underlying disease. Examples of pathological fractures include those caused by cancer (see Figure 1), osteoporosis, or other bone diseases.
A bone fracture is a complete or incomplete discontinuity of bone caused by a direct or indirect force. A pathological bone fracture is a bone fracture which occurs without adequate trauma and is caused by a preexistent pathological bone lesion.
000 for Wedge compression fracture of unspecified lumbar vertebra is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Injury, poisoning and certain other consequences of external causes .
A pathologic bone fracture due to osteoporosis. It is generally caused by a fall from a standing height or lower and usually involves the spine, hip, or wrist. Breaks in bones resulting from low bone mass and microarchitectural deterioration characteristic of osteoporosis.
To provide additional specificity, the fracture seventh characters are expanded to include: A, Initial encounter for closed fracture. B, Initial encounter for open fracture. D, Subsequent encounter for fracture with routine healing.
A vertebral fracture may occur spontaneously and thus be more easily identified as occurring due to a disease (e.g. osteoporosis) and, therefore, coded as a pathologic fracture (ICD9 733.13).
In ICD-10-CM, codes for compression and pathologic fractures of the spine (not due to trauma) are located in Chapter 13, Diseases of the Musculoskeletal System and Connective Tissue. Category M48. 5-, Collapsed vertebra, not elsewhere classifiable is used for vertebrae fracture where no cause is listed.
A pathologic fracture is a broken bone that's caused by a disease, rather than an injury. Some conditions weaken your bones, which makes them more likely to break. Everyday things, such as coughing, stepping out of a car, or bending over can fracture a bone that's been weakened by an illness.
Pathological fracture, not elsewhere classified M84.4- 1 A broken bone caused by disease, often by the spread of cancer to the bone. 2 Fractures occurring as a result of disease of a bone or from some undiscoverable cause, and not due to trauma. (Dorland, 27th ed)

Use a child code to capture more detail. ICD Code S32 is a non-billable code. To code a diagnosis of this type, you must use one of the nine child codes of S32 that describes the diagnosis 'fracture of lumbar spine and pelvis' in more detail.
The ICD code S32 is used to code Abdominal trauma. Abdominal trauma is an injury to the abdomen. It may be blunt or penetrating and may involve damage to the abdominal organs. Signs and symptoms include abdominal pain, tenderness, rigidity, and bruising of the external abdomen. Abdominal trauma presents a risk of severe blood loss and infection.
S32 . Non-Billable means the code is not sufficient justification for admission to an acute care hospital when used a principal diagnosis. Use a child code to capture more detail. ICD Code S32 is a non-billable code.
