Signs and symptoms of a hip fracture include:
When there is normal bone but just not enough of it, we call it osteoporosis. This is by far the most common reason for a fracture without significant trauma. Osteoporosis lies in wait for every living human, if only they live long enough to develop it.
Trochanteric avulsion fractures are those in which a fragment of bone belonging to one of the trochanters breaks away from the femur. The top portion of the femur bone joins with the pelvic bones to form the hip joint.
Fracture complications include: Acute Injuries to adjacent structures Arterial Nerve Other organs. Compartment syndrome Fracture blisters of the skin Fat embolism Open fracture Thromboembolic disease. Chronic Arthritis, post-traumatic Complex regional pain syndrome Delayed union Malunion
S72. 141A - Displaced intertrochanteric fracture of right femur [initial encounter for closed fracture] | ICD-10-CM.
The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM S72. 92XA became effective on October 1, 2021. This is the American ICD-10-CM version of S72.
Intertrochanteric fractures are defined as extracapsular fractures of the proximal femur that occur between the greater and lesser trochanter. The intertrochanteric aspect of the femur is located between the greater and lesser trochanters and is composed of dense trabecular bone.

Fracture of femur ICD-10-CM S72. 309A is grouped within Diagnostic Related Group(s) (MS-DRG v39.0):
An intertrochanteric fracture is a type of hip fracture or broken hip. The hip is made up of two bones—the femur, or "thigh bone," and the pelvis, or "socket." The hip is an important ball-in-socket joint that allows you to move your leg when walking.
The intertrochanteric area of the femur is distal to the femoral neck and proximal to the femoral shaft; it is the area of the femoral trochanters, the lesser and the greater trochanters (see the image below).
“Intertrochanteric” means “between the trochanters,” which are bony protrusions on the femur (thighbone). They're the points where the muscles of the thigh and hip attach.

A broken thighbone, also known as a femur fracture, is a serious and painful injury. The femur is one of the strongest bones in the body, and a break or fracture in the femur bone is often caused by severe injury such as trauma sustained in a motor vehicle accident.
ICD-10-CM Code for Encounter for other orthopedic aftercare Z47. 89.
A bone fracture is a complete or incomplete discontinuity of bone caused by a direct or indirect force. A pathological bone fracture is a bone fracture which occurs without adequate trauma and is caused by a preexistent pathological bone lesion.
