The ICD-10-CM code S52.501A might also be used to specify conditions or terms like closed fracture of distal end of right radius, fracture of distal end of right radius, open fracture of distal end of right radius or open fracture of right radius.

What is a distal tibia and fibula fracture? These fractures occur at the ankle end of the tibia. They are also called tibial plafond fractures. One of the common types in children is the distal tibial metaphyseal fracture. This is a fracture in the metaphysis, the part of tibia before it reaches its widest point.
Tibia fibula fracture
Fracture of lower end of tibia ICD-10-CM S82. 302A is grouped within Diagnostic Related Group(s) (MS-DRG v39.0):
ICD-10 Code for Unspecified fracture of shaft of left tibia- S82. 202- Codify by AAPC.
A broken tibia-fibula is a fracture in the lower leg that happens when a fall or blow places more pressure on the bones than they can withstand. A tibia-fibula fracture is a serious injury that requires prompt immediate medical attention. With timely and proper treatment, a broken tibia-fibula can heal completely.
ICD-9 code 823.3 for Fracture of shaft of tibia and fibula open is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range -FRACTURE OF LOWER LIMB (820-829).
Unspecified fracture of shaft of unspecified tibia, initial encounter for closed fracture. S82. 209A 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 S82.
S82. 201A - Unspecified fracture of shaft of right tibia [initial encounter for closed fracture]. ICD-10-CM.
medialThe tibia is a medial and large long bone of the lower extremity, connecting the knee and ankle joints. It is considered to be the second largest bone in the body and it plays an important role in weight bearing.
At the lower end of the tibia there is a medial extension (the medial malleolus), which forms part of the ankle joint and articulates with the talus (anklebone) below; there is also a fibular notch, which meets the lower end of the shaft of the fibula.
The distal tibia, distal fibula, and talus articulate to form the bony structure of the ankle joint. The distal tibial articular surface, also known as the tibial plafond, is a quadrilateral surface that is wider anteriorly. 1–4. This surface is concave in the sagittal plane and slightly convex in the transverse plane.
'When both the tibia and fibula are fractured, the index directs the clinical coder to assign a combined code. The exclusion at 'S82. 31 Fracture of lower end of tibia with fracture of fibula (any part)' directs the coder to 'S82.
2022 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code S82. 832A: Other fracture of upper and lower end of left fibula, initial encounter for closed fracture.
The fibula is the slender long bone that is attached next to and a little below the tibia (shinbone). It bears very little body weight. The fibula provides lateral stability for the lower leg and acts as a tie rod to increase the range of motion for the ankle, especially lateral and medial rotation of the foot.
Instead, ICD-10-CM includes an instructional note at the beginning of each category of dislocation (S03, S13. S23, S33, S43, S53, S63, S73, S83, S93) that informs the user to code separately any associated open wound.
Complications of a joint dislocation may include: 1 Tearing of the muscles, ligaments and tendons that reinforce the injured joint 2 Nerve or blood vessel damage in or around your joint 3 Susceptibility to re-injury if you have a severe dislocation or repeated dislocations 4 Development of arthritis in the affected joint as you age
For example, nursemaid’s elbow is a partial dislocation common in toddlers. The main symptom is refusal to use the arm. Nursemaid’s elbow can be easily treated in a doctor’s office. A dislocated joint may be accompanied by numbness or tingling at the joint or beyond it. Additional signs and symptoms may include.
Dislocations may further be defined by positioning: Anterior – The end of the bone is displaced to the anterior, medial, and slightly inferior to its normal anatomic position. Posterior – The end of the bone is displaced posterior to the joint and its normal anatomic position.
