The radius is one of two forearm bones and is located on the thumb side. The part of the radius connected to the wrist joint is called the distal radius. When the radius breaks near the wrist, it is called a distal radius fracture. The break usually happens due to falling on an outstretched or flexed hand.
813.42ICD-9 code 813.42 for Other closed fractures of distal end of radius (alone) is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range -FRACTURE OF UPPER LIMB (810-819).
Unspecified fracture of the lower end of right radius, initial encounter for closed fracture. S52. 501A is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes.
Patients who underwent open reduction internal fixation (ORIF) of a distal radius fracture were identified with CPT codes 25607, 25608, and 25609.
A fracture of the distal radius occurs when the radius — one of the two long bones in the forearm — breaks close to the wrist. Distal radius fractures are very common. In fact, the radius is the most commonly broken bone in the arm.
Proximal radius fractures include fractures of the proximal portion of the radius including the radial neck and head. They are often associated with other injuries including olecranon fractures, elbow dislocations, medial epicondyle fractures and ulna shaft fractures.
forearmradius, in anatomy, the outer of the two bones of the forearm when viewed with the palm facing forward. All land vertebrates have this bone. In humans it is shorter than the other bone of the forearm, the ulna.
The forearm consists of two bones, the radius and the ulna, with the ulna is located on the pinky side and the radius on your thumb side.
A Colles' fracture is a type of fracture of the distal forearm in which the broken end of the radius is bent backwards. Symptoms may include pain, swelling, deformity, and bruising. Complications may include damage to the median nerve. It typically occurs as a result of a fall on an outstretched hand.
In severe cases, the fractured bone is so much out of place that it can't be corrected or realigned without making a surgical incision. An open wrist fracture will require surgical treatment as soon as possible. Surgical treatment methods can possibly affect the future use of the forearm or wrist.
In case of severe trauma, like that caused by a motorcycle crash, some residual stiffness can remain for about 2 years or even permanently. Full distal radius fracture recovery generally takes about a year.
You will usually have pain and swelling in the forearm or wrist. You may have a deformity in the shape of the wrist if the fracture is bad enough. The presence of bruising (black and blue discoloration) is common. See your doctor if you have enough pain in your arm to stop you from using it normally.
Treatment for a Distal Radius FractureImmobilize the wrist with a splint or brace.Elevate the wrist above the level of the heart.Use ice therapy for 5 to 10 minutes every hour, which can ease swelling and dull pain signals.
