V17.2: Pedal cyclist injured in collision with fixed or stationary object : unspecified pedal cyclist injured in nontraffic accident

The ICD-10 code V17.2 refers to injuries sustained by a pedal cyclist in collision with a fixed or stationary object in a non-traffic accident. This category includes a wide range of possible injuries that can occur during such incidents. These injuries can range from minor scrapes and bruises to more severe outcomes such as fractures, concussions, or internal injuries depending on the speed and nature of the collision. The type of stationary object involved in the collision can also influence the extent and location of injuries. Most often, upper and lower extremities, including arms, hands, legs, and feet, are typically involved, along with possible head and neck injuries in the absence of appropriate safety equipment such as helmets. It is important to note that this classification does not describe the severity of the injury, merely the circumstance under which it occurred.
