What has happened to this code
Every change the publisher made, from 2007 to now. Entries marked draft are from the pre-implementation releases: ICD-10 took effect on 1 October 2015, so nothing before FY2016 was ever valid on a claim.

How CDC's index refers to this code
Wording from the official alphabetic index. Much of it appears nowhere in the code description, which is why a search for the everyday phrase so often finds nothing.
- Injury > chest
- Injury > interscapular area
- Injury > thorax, thoracic > fracture
- Fracture, traumatic > vertebra, vertebral > dorsal
- Fracture, traumatic > vertebra, vertebral > thoracic
- Fracture, traumatic > thorax > vertebra > twelfth > specified type NEC
