About S82.319

S82.319 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for Torus fracture of lower end of unspecified tibia. It belongs to category S82 (fracture of lower leg, including ankle), block S80-S89 (injuries to the knee and lower leg) and chapter 19 (injury, poisoning and certain other consequences of external causes). It is a header code, so it can't be reported by itself; one of its 6 subcodes must be used instead.

Within S82.31, choose S82.319 (unspecified tibia) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: right tibia (S82.311) and left tibia (S82.312).

Codes in this range require a 7th character: A for initial encounter for closed fracture, D for subsequent encounter for fracture with routine healing, G for subsequent encounter for fracture with delayed healing, K for subsequent encounter for fracture with nonunion, P for subsequent encounter for fracture with malunion and S for sequela. Use placeholder "X" characters to fill any empty positions before the 7th character.

It has been part of ICD-10-CM since the code set took effect on October 1, 2015 and hasn't changed since.
