Injuries to the pubic symphysis include diastasis, fractures into the symphysis, and fracture dislocations. Following trauma, if the pubic symphysis is not disrupted, the anterior pelvic-ring injury commonly consists of
The pubic symphysis is a cartilaginous joint where the pubic bones meet. The articulation is composed of a fibrocartilaginous disc that is reinforced by the superior and inferior pubic ligaments. The arcuate ligament forms an arch between the two inferior pubic rami and is thought to be the major soft-tissue stabilizer of the symphysis pubis ( 3 ).

The pubic rami are a group of bones that make up a portion of the pelvis. A pubic ramus fracture is a break in one of these bones. Please note that there is no difference between a fracture and a break. Iliac bone. Coccyx.

pelvisThe inferior pubic ramus is a part of the pelvis and is thin and flat. It passes laterally and downward from the medial end of the superior ramus; it becomes narrower as it descends and joins with the inferior ramus of the ischium below the obturator foramen.
The pubic symphysis is a joint sandwiched between your left pelvic bone and your right pelvic bone. It helps your pelvis absorb some of the weight from your upper body before it travels to your lower body. It also helps separate your pelvic bones to prepare for vaginal childbirth. Function.
R10. 2 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes.
The pubis , also referred to as the pubic bone, is one of the three main bones that make up the pelvis. Also known as the pelvic girdle, the pelvis is a structure located between the abdomen and thighs. The pubis is the most forward-facing bone of the pelvic bones.
The most common pelvic fracture identified by plain X-ray is that of the pubic rami. PFF are painful and despite optimal analgesia, many of these patients struggle to mobilise.
The Pubis. The pubis is the most anterior portion of the hip bone. It consists of a body, superior ramus and inferior ramus (ramus = branch).
Open book pelvic injuries result from an anteroposterior compression injury to the pelvis and result in a combination of ligamentous rupture and/or fractures to both the anterior and posterior arches 5: anterior arch: pubic diastasis (+/- sacrotuberous/sacrospinous ligamentous disruption) and/or pubic rami fractures.
For codes less than 6 characters that require a 7th character a placeholder 'X' should be assigned for all characters less than 6. The 7th character must always be the 7th position of a code. E.g. The ICD-10-CM code T67.4 (Heat exhaustion due to salt depletion) requires an Episode of Care identifier.
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.

Diastasis of the pubic symphysis is often part of a complex injury to the pelvic ring. The bony pelvis provides protection to the lower abdominal and genitourinary tract as well as the great vessels of the pelvic floor and lower extremity. High-energy trauma that leads to disruption and displacement of the pelvis may lead to deformity, instability, and associated injuries to the surrounding visceral structures. In a small but not insignificant number of patients, serious or life-threatening hemorrhage may occur. Inadequately diagnosed or treated, these injuries can result in residual pain, leg length discrepancy, limp, sitting imbalance, and sexual or bladder dysfunction.
