ICD-10 code S52. 125A for Nondisplaced fracture of head of left 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 .
CPT® Code 24650 in section: Closed treatment of radial head or neck fracture.
ICD-9-CM Diagnosis Code 813.15 : Open fracture of head of radius.
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.
The radial "head" is the knobby end of the radius where it meets the elbow. While trying to break a fall with your hands may seem instinctive, the force of the fall could travel up your forearm bones and dislocate your elbow. It also could break the smaller bone (radius) in your forearm.
Code 24366 (Arthroplasty, radial head; with implant) applies when your surgeon uses a prosthesis for more chronic conditions, when a fracture is not present.
Displaced Fracture: bone breaks into two or more pieces and moves out of alignment. Non-Displaced Fracture: the bone breaks but does not move out of alignment. Closed Fracture: the skin is not broken.

M25. 531 Pain in right wrist - ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Codes.
The radial head is the proximal articular surface of the radius and prone to dislocation in childhood and fracture in adults. It is palpable on the lateral side of the elbow, immediately distal to the lateral epicondyle of the humerus.
The radial head is the small part of this bone near the elbow. This bone may break (fracture) during sports or a fall. It may happen when your arm is hit or is used to protect you in a fall. Fractures can range from a small, hairline crack to a bone that is broken into two or more pieces.
Definition: A fracture of the radial shaft with disruption of the distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ). The fracture is usually in the distal third of the radial shaft, just proximal to the pronator quadratus. DRUJ instability is due to disruption of the triangular fibrocartilage complex (TFCC).
Radial head fractures can be subtle and easily missed on radiographs. It is important to assess the radiograph for a joint effusion and where one exists, to take extra care in the assessment of the radial head.
Radial neck fractures account for 8% of all elbow fractures in children. The most common mechanism is a fall onto the outstretched arm with a valgus stress at the elbow. They can also occur as a result of a dislocation and subsequent manual reduction of the elbow joint.
Depending on how severe your fracture is and on other factors, you may not have full range of motion after you recover. Most fractures heal well in 6 to 8 weeks.
Radial head fractures are common injuries, occurring in about 20% of all acute elbow injuries. Many elbow dislocations also involve fractures of the radial head. Radial head fractures are more frequent in women than in men, and are more likely to happen in people who are between 30 and 40 years of age.
