Fracture of femur - S72

S72 Category in ICD-10-CM facilitate the systematic organization of medical information for accurate and standardized healthcare practices.

Category Notes:

A fracture not indicated as displaced or nondisplaced should be coded to displaced
A fracture not indicated as open or closed should be coded to closed
The open fracture designations are based on the Gustilo open fracture classification

Excludes1: It indicates that the conditions described by two codes cannot occur together in the same patient. These codes are mutually exclusive.

Type 1 Excludes:

traumatic amputation of hip and thigh (S78.-)

Excludes2: This note means that the conditions described by two codes are not usually associated with each other but can sometimes occur together.

Type 2 Excludes:

fracture of lower leg and ankle (S82.-)
fracture of foot (S92.-)
periprosthetic fracture of prosthetic implant of hip (M97.0-)

The seventh character in ICD-10-CM is an essential component that adds specificity to diagnosis codes by indicating aspects like the encounter type, stage, or other relevant clinical details.

Category SevenChr Note:

The appropriate 7th character is to be added to all codes from category S72
