T02: Fractures involving multiple body regions
T02.7: Fractures involving thorax with lower back and pelvis with limb(s)
Fractures involving thorax with lower back and pelvis with limb(s) represent complex injuries to the body's skeletal structure. This singular condition highlights a situation where multiple areas of the body have sustained damage from a traumatic event, such as a severe fall or high-impact collision. The affected areas - thorax (chest area), lower back and pelvis, and one or more limbs - are all parts of the body's large structural bone system, instrumental in movement and protecting internal organs. The combination results in a severe health scenario that can intricacy impede physical function. Symptoms may include intense pain, difficulty moving, swelling, bruising, and possible visible deformity of the affected bones. Condition severity can vary depending on the degree of bone damage in each section. Notably, as the injury involves multiple critical areas, there could be a more serious underlying damage to internal organs or potential for compounding issues like nerve damage or infection.
