Code 27197 describes closed treatment of posterior pelvic ring fracture, or related acute pathological conditions of the pelvis or adjacent structures, without manipulation. Closed treatment means no incision is made (the provider does not expose the bone).
S32.511A 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 S32.511A became effective on October 1, 2021.

Superior and inferior pubic ramus fracture. Unstable fracture. In this type of fracture, there are usually two or more breaks in the pelvic ring and the ends of the broken bones do not line up correctly (displacement). This type of fracture is more likely to occur due to a high-energy event.
S32. 501A - Unspecified fracture of right pubis [initial encounter for closed fracture]. ICD-10-CM.
Unspecified fracture of left pubis, initial encounter for closed fracture. S32. 502A is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes.
The inferior pubic ramus is a part of the pelvis and is thin and flat. It passes laterally and downward from the medial end of the superior ramus; it becomes narrower as it descends and joins with the inferior ramus of the ischium below the obturator foramen.
Pubic rami fractures are classified as fractures of the anterior pelvic ring and from a biomechanical point of view they are considered stable fractures that allow full weight bearing. As a consequence conservative treatment consisting of analgesia and mobilisation with weight bearing as tolerated is generally applied.
Introduction: Pubic rami fractures are common fractures in a growing osteoporotic geriatric population. Concomitant posterior ring fractures (cPRF) are often found when properly looked for. The pain and consequent immobilization leaves this vulnerable patient group at risk for complications.
The pubic ramus is the name for a section of the pubis bone. The pubis bone is one of three bones that make up the pelvis. A stress fracture of the pubic ramus is a crack within this bone. Physiotherapy is an important part of the rehabilitation process.
A pelvic fracture is usually diagnosed by the presence of bone tenderness, difficulty walking or doing other movements and any loss of nerve function in the lower part of the body. There may be injuries to organs within the pelvic ring such as the intestines, kidneys, bladder or genitals.
0 – Age-Related Osteoporosis without Current Pathological Fracture. ICD-Code M81. 0 is a billable ICD-10 code used for healthcare diagnosis reimbursement of Age-Related Osteoporosis without Current Pathological Fracture.
ICD-10-CM Code for Fracture of sacrum S32. 1.
The pelvic ring consists of the sacrum and the two hip bones (each one of them consisting of an ischium, ilium and pubic bone) which are connected by three joints, namely two sacroiliac (SI) joints between the sacral bone and the iliac wings, and the symphysis, which connects the two pubic rami.
Conclusion. Pubic ramus fractures without involvement of the posterior pelvis (FFP Type I) are serious adverse events for elderly persons. During follow-up, there is an excess mortality, a loss of independence, a restricted mobility, and a decreased quality of life.
The inferior pubic ramus (plural: inferior pubic rami) is part of the pubis. It forms the border of the urogenital region of the pelvic outlet, running between the pubic tubercle and ischial tuberosity.
A pubic ramus fracture is a break in one of these bones. These fractures do not need an operation and will heal with time, analgesia and therapy. They often take about 6-8 weeks to heal. You can fully weight bear as pain allows and there are no limitations to range of movement only to avoid twisting on the leg.
The pubic rami are a group of bones that make up a portion of the pelvis. A pubic ramus fracture is a break in one of these bones.
A patient can suffer a fracture of all four pubic rami with no disruption of the pelvic circle. In order to assign code 808.43, Multiple pelvic fractures with disruption of pelvic circle, complete disruption of the pelvic circle must be documented.
