What has happened to this code

Every change the publisher made, from 2014 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.

FY2014 Added to the draft code set draft Nondisplaced Maisonneuve's fracture of unspecified leg

Official coding rules

Published by CDC for FY2027. A rule attached to a category binds every code beneath it, so the rules inherited from this code's ancestors are shown with the code they come from.

Inherited from S82 Fracture of lower leg, including ankle

Seventh character required

The appropriate 7th character is to be added to all codes from category S82

Seventh character values

initial encounter for open fracture NOS

Excludes1 - never coded here

traumatic amputation of lower leg (S88.-)

Excludes2 - not included here

fracture of foot, except ankle (S92.-)
periprosthetic fracture around internal prosthetic ankle joint (M97.2)
periprosthetic fracture around internal prosthetic implant of knee joint (M97.1-)

Includes

fracture of malleolus

Note

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

Inherited from the S80-S89 section Injuries to the knee and lower leg (S80-S89)

Excludes2 - not included here

burns and corrosions (T20-T32)
frostbite (T33-T34)

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.

Fracture, traumatic > tibia > malleolus
Fracture, traumatic > tibia > involving ankle or malleolus
Fracture, traumatic > ankle > medial malleolus > associated with Maisonneuve's fracture
Fracture, traumatic > Maisonneuve's
Fracture, traumatic > Maisonneuve's > nondisplaced
