A tuft fracture is frequently an open fracture due to its common association with injury to the surrounding soft tissues or nail bed. Even without surrounding soft tissue injury, the fracture is considered open in the presence of a nail bed injury.
Nondisplaced fracture of distal phalanx of unspecified thumb, initial encounter for open fracture. S62. 526B 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 S62.

2022 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code S52. 501A: Unspecified fracture of the lower end of right radius, initial encounter for closed fracture.
Comminuted fractures are a type of broken bone. The term comminuted fracture refers to a bone that is broken in at least two places. Comminuted fractures are caused by severe traumas like car accidents. You will need surgery to repair your bone, and recovery can take a year or longer.
In a mallet injury, when an object hits the tip of the finger or thumb, the force of the blow tears the extensor tendon. Occasionally, a minor force such as tucking in a bed sheet will cause a mallet finger.
A tuft fracture refers to a fracture or break through the very tip of the bone that sits under the fingernail (distal phalanx). This can occur with a crush injury, such as when a finger is accidently caught in a closing door. This is a very common injury and generally heals very well.
Thumb Distal Phalanx The bulbous tuft at the end of the bone gives the thumb its rounded end. This bone supports the thumb nail.
Often a distal phalanx fracture is a "tuft" fracture, which means that a small fragment or fragments of bone are chipped off the edge of the distal phalanx. These bone injuries do not require wiring or pinning, as they will heal by themselves.
When you pick unknown it means your doctor has no idea what bone is broken or just says generic "wrist fracture".
