Go Back to Chapter - S00-T88 | Section - S70-S79 Go back

7th Chr Note S72:

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

Excludes-1 for S72:

  • traumatic amputation of hip and thigh (S78.-)

Excludes-2 for S72:

  • fracture of lower leg and ankle (S82.-)

  • fracture of foot (S92.-)

  • periprosthetic fracture of prosthetic implant of hip (M97.0-)

Notes for S72:

  • 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
