Notes:

• I have a question in articles I have read the hipbone is referred to as the pelvic bone which consists of the iliac crest, iliac fossa ,acetabulum ,ischial tuberosity , pubis symphisis, inferior rami of pubis ,body of ischium ,and superior rami of pubis.my question is coding of #hips do you code under this code extremity # non post or under pelvic #trauma non post I know some collectors do either or which one is the correct one Also the head of the femur is usually driven through the acetabulum .Thanks Please let me know.
  • Hi Shirley, rather than a question, since you have researched this on internet, please post your final call here and this will be the instruction for all to use to be consistent. Also, Marie, you had asked Ortho Dept at Con about this in past but final info never made it onto Wiki here. Between Shirely and Marie, please post final instruction here and delete then question and discussion. Thank you both for contributing to collection instructions.

• • A hip fracture refers to the femor being broken according to Wikipedia. A Femor fracture requires surgery for repair as a general rule whereas a pelvic fracture may or may not need bedrest and ususally would not be surgically repaired. if you are not sure look at the surgical report to see if a femor repair has taken place.
