    Wiki Single fracture extending through 2 anatomic sites

    Patient has a closed fracture that extends from the tibial shaft through the tibial pilon. Is it wrong to code for both the tibial shaft reduction and the pilon reduction? The fracture spans 2 separate anatomic sites, but it is 1 continuous fracture. Is there any documentation on this? Thank...
