Periprosthetic fracture around internal prosthetic left hip joint, initial encounter. M97. 02XA is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursem*nt purposes.

Periprosthetic fractures are fractures of the femur or tibia within 15 cm of the knee joint or 5 cm from the end of the prosthesis and any patellar fractures post- TKA.

In ICD-10-CM, periprosthetic fractures are reported with codes from category M97 Periprosthetic fracture around internal prosthetic joint. There is an instructional note under M97 that states "Code first, if known, the specific type and cause of fracture, such as traumatic or pathological."

ICD-9 code 821.01 for Fracture of shaft of femur closed is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range -FRACTURE OF LOWER LIMB (820-829).

Treatment: Open reduction and internal fixation with a plate construct is the standard method of fixation. Ricci et al. described the number of screws used in a locking plate proximal and distal depend on the location of the fracture.

Periprosthetic distal femur fractures exclusively treated with plate fixation require weight-bearing restrictions for weeks to months. Postoperative patient immobilization drastically increases the complication risk associated with surgery, and avoidance of this limitation is one of the main indications for surgery.

A proximal femur fracture (hip fracture) is a break in the uppermost part of thighbone, next to the hip joint. A femoral shaft fracture is a break in the middle of the bone or narrow part of the femur. This type of fracture almost always requires treatment in the operating room.
