These are all found in the ICD-10-CM Book in the guidelines about fracture coding. All fractures default to a displaced fracture if it is not documented as displaced or nondisplaced. (Displaced basically just means the bones are not lined up right). If the report specifies ‘nondisplaced’ fracture, then code it as nondisplaced.

Summary. Ilium fractures are high energy pelvic fractures that are often unstable and typically progress from the iliac crest to the greater sciatic notch.
ICD-10-CM Code for Unspecified fracture of left ilium, initial encounter for open fracture S32. 302B.
ICD-10-CM S72. 001A is grouped within Diagnostic Related Group(s) (MS-DRG v39.0): 521 Hip replacement with principal diagnosis of hip fracture with mcc. 522 Hip replacement with principal diagnosis of hip fracture without mcc.
You have two iliac arteries: one on the right side of the body (called the right common iliac artery) and one on the left (called the left common iliac artery). Both common iliac arteries branch from the base of the aorta. This part of the aorta is called the abdominal aorta because it's in your belly.
pelvisIliac Bone is the upper crest or "wings" on the pelvic girdle. The uppermost and widest of the three bones constituting either of the lateral halves of the pelvis. Iliac bone is commonly used for autogenous bone grafts in spine surgery.
The largest and uppermost bone of the hip, the ilium, also known as the iliac bone, is an essential part of the pelvic girdle. In adults, this fan-shaped bone is fused with two other bones, the ischium and pubis, to make the hip bone (often referred to as the coxal bone).
Fracture of other parts of pelvis, initial encounter for closed fracture. S32. 89XA 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 S32.
The iliac crest is the curved part at the top of the hip. It forms the wing-like part of the pelvis on which a person will sometimes rest their hands. Muscles, ligaments, and fascia (a thin casing of connective tissue) attach to the iliac crest, and pain is caused when these are pulled or strained.

Chapter 19 of the ICD-10 CM Official Coding Guidelines contains some very explicit guidelines for coders to follow when coding injuries, traumatic fractures and multiple fractures.
Open fracture with extensive soft-tissue laceration, damage, or loss or an open segmental fracture. This type also includes open fractures caused by farm injuries, fractures requiring vascular repair, or fractures that have been open for 8 hr prior to treatment
Fracture through all three elements of the bone, the growth plate, metaphysis, and epiphysis.
A fracture not indicated as open or closed should be coded to closed. A fracture not indicated whether displaced or nondisplaced should be coded to displaced. Multiple Fractures Sequencing: Multiple fractures are sequenced in accordance with the severity of the fracture.
It’s no secret that ICD-10-CM offers more codes and increased granularity of data for the coding of orthopedic diagnosis and procedures. And it’s also no secret that orthopedic dollars are critical to a hospital’s bottom line—including revenue from treating fractures. Therefore, shoring up orthopedic documentation and coding is a critical step in your ICD-10 journey.
All fractures default to a “closed” fracture if it’s not documented. Closed fracture means that there’s a broken bone but it is not coming out through the skin. This is really gross to think about but since we’re coders, we have to. Basically, if the report states “open fracture,” you’d code it as open fracture.
But what that means is that the bone is so broken and messed up that you’d be able to see it. It’s through the skin (these are very bad fractures, sometimes from gunshot wounds and those types of injuries).
