2012 ICD-9-CM Diagnosis Codes 812.* : Fracture of humerus A traumatic or pathologic injury to the humerus in which the continuity of the humerus is broken.
812.09 is a legacy non-billable code used to specify a medical diagnosis of other closed fracture of upper end of humerus. This code was replaced on September 30, 2015 by its ICD-10 equivalent.
ICD-9-CM 812.09 is one of thousands of ICD-9-CM codes used in healthcare. Although ICD-9-CM and CPT codes are largely numeric, they differ in that CPT codes describe medical procedures and services. Can't find a code?

A humerus fracture is the medical name for breaking the bone in your upper arm (your humerus). Humerus fractures are usually caused by traumas like car accidents or falls. If you break your humerus, you might need surgery to repair your bone.

The proximal humerus consists of the humeral head, anatomical neck, greater tuberosity, lesser tuberosity, surgical neck, and proximal shaft. Fractures of the proximal humerus (Box 4-8) are associated with osteoporosis. The majority of fractures are the result of indirect forces such as a fall onto an outstretched arm.
When a fracture happens, it's classified as either open or closed: Open fracture (also called compound fracture): The bone pokes through the skin and can be seen, or a deep wound exposes the bone through the skin. Closed fracture (also called simple fracture). The bone is broken, but the skin is intact.
2-PART FRACTURE: This is when the proximal humerus is broken into two pieces, meaning there is one fracture line on x-ray. Commonly, this will be a fracture of the greater tuberosity, which is the part of the humerus where the rotator cuff attaches.
Figure 8.5 Humerus and Elbow Joint The humerus is the single bone of the upper arm region. It articulates with the radius and ulna bones of the forearm to form the elbow joint.
Displaced fractures: A gap forms where the bone breaks. Often, this injury requires surgery to fix. Partial fractures: The break doesn't go all the way through the bone. Stress fractures: The bone gets a crack in it, which is sometimes tough to find with imaging.
The surgical neck of the humerus is a constriction below the tubercles of the greater tubercle and lesser tubercle, and above the deltoid tuberosity, specifically found at the proximal end of the body of the humerus, and distally towards the greater tubercle and lesser tubercle.
812.10 is a legacy non-billable code used to specify a medical diagnosis of open fracture of unspecified part of upper end of humerus. This code was replaced on September 30, 2015 by its ICD-10 equivalent.

A fracture is a break, usually in a bone. If the broken bone punctures the skin , it is called an open or compound fracture. Fractures commonly happen because of car accidents, falls or sports injuries. Other causes are low bone density and osteoporosis, which cause weakening of the bones. Overuse can cause stress fractures, which are very small cracks in the bone.
