T02: Fractures involving multiple body regions
T02.8: Fractures involving other combinations of body regions
Fractures involving other combinations of body regions (ICD-10 code T02.8) refer to a type of physical injury where two or more unrelated parts of the body experience broken bones simultaneously. These fractures can occur on any part of the body and can include but are not limited to, limbs, ribs, skull, and pelvis. The cause is typically a high-impact event or trauma, such as a severe fall, car accident, or any activity that exerts excessive force on the body. Symptoms of such fractures include severe pain, swelling and bruising, inability to move the injured regions, and possibly deformity of the affected areas. These fractures can deeply affect the musculoskeletal system, causing mobility issues and possible disruption to other organ systems depending on the severity and location of the fractures.
