S82

Fracture of lower leg, including ankle

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

fracture of malleolus

traumatic amputation of lower leg (S88.-)

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-)

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