79.35 Open reduction of fracture with internal fixation, femur.
Internal fixation refers to the method of physically reconnecting the bones. This might involve special screws, plates, rods, wires, or nails that the surgeon places inside the bones to fix them in the correct place. This prevents the bones from healing abnormally.
Overview. An external fixation device may be used to keep fractured bones stabilized and in alignment. The device can be adjusted externally to ensure the bones remain in an optimal position during the healing process. This device is commonly used in children and when the skin over the fracture has been damaged.
Most (> 90%) of the internal fixations are removed within 24 months after the initial surgery [3]. However, there is no clear timing for removing the osteosynthetic material, the time-point of removal depends mainly on the time-point of bone healing [13].
This new class of intramedullary nail, the so-called “cephalomedullary nail” includes the Long Gamma Nail (LGN), the Trochanteric Femoral Nail (TFN), and the Intertroch/Subtroch Nail (ITST).
Casting of a nondisplaced fracture is coded to the root operation Immobilization in the Placement section.

Question: When coding the placement of an infusion device such as a peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC line), the code assignment for the body part is based on the site in which the device ended up (end placement). For coding purposes, can imaging reports be used to determine the end placement of the device?
Question: ...venous access port. An incision was made in the anterior chest wall and a subcutaneous pocket was created. The catheter was advanced into the vein, tunneled under the skin and attached to the port, which was anchored in the subcutaneous pocket. The incision was closed in layers.
Question: In Coding Clinic, Fourth Quarter 2013, pages 116- 117, information was published about the device character for the insertion of a totally implantable central venous access device (port-a-cath). Although we agree with the device value, the approach value is inaccurate.
Question: A patient diagnosed with Stage IIIC ovarian cancer underwent placement of an intraperitoneal port-a-catheter during total abdominal hysterectomy. An incision on the costal margin in the midclavicular line on the right side was made, and a pocket was formed. A port was then inserted within the pocket and secured with stitches.
Question: The patient has a malfunctioning right internal jugular tunneled catheter. At surgery, the old catheter was removed and a new one placed. Under ultrasound guidance, the jugular was cannulated; the cuff of the old catheter was dissected out; and the entire catheter removed.
Cutting through the skin or mucous membrane and any other body layers necessary to expose the site of the procedure
Entry, by puncture or minor incision, of instrumentation through the skin or mucous membrane and any other body layers necessary to reach the site of the procedure
Entry of instrumentation through a natural or artificial external opening to reach the site of the procedure
Entry of instrumentation through a natural or artificial external opening to reach and visualize the site of the procedure
Body Part: The body part character reflects the level of the vertebrae (cervical, thoracic, lumbar and/or sacral) and the number of vertebral joints fused. The intervertebral joint is the space that is located between any two adjacent vertebrae. One factor in determining the number of fusion codes to assign is how many levels were fused.
Coding professionals must be able to distinguish between what procedures are integral to a spinal fusion and are not assigned additional codes, versus those not considered to be integral and are assigned separate codes. The following are examples of how to make that distinction.
