Patient presents with right hip pain following a fall from standing height.  Mechanism of injury consistent with an intertrochanteric femur fracture.  Patient reports severe pain exacerbated by movement and weight-bearing.  Physical examination reveals significant tenderness to palpation over the right proximal femur, ecchymosis, and swelling.  Limited range of motion in the right hip due to pain.  Neurovascular examination of the right lower extremity reveals intact distal pulses and sensation.  Radiographic imaging of the right hip confirms an intertrochanteric fracture, classified as a stable AO Foundation classification 31-A1.2 fracture.  Differential diagnoses considered included femoral neck fracture, hip dislocation, and soft tissue injury.  Impression is closed, stable intertrochanteric femur fracture.  Treatment plan includes surgical fixation with an intramedullary nail.  Patient is admitted for pain management, surgical intervention, and postoperative physical therapy.  Prognosis is good with appropriate surgical management and rehabilitation.  ICD-10 code S72.111A assigned for closed, displaced intertrochanteric fracture of right femur, initial encounter for closed fracture.  Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) codes will be determined at the time of surgery and will likely include codes for open reduction internal fixation of intertrochanteric femur fracture.  Patient education provided regarding postoperative care, weight-bearing restrictions, and physical therapy.  Risks and benefits of surgical intervention discussed, and informed consent obtained.  Follow-up scheduled for postoperative evaluation and ongoing physical therapy.
