There are multiple codes associated with the history of a vertebral compression fracture. V13.51, V13.52, and V15.51 can all be used depending on the cause of the fracture. V13.51 is the code for pathological fractures, which can also be used with the codes for osteoporosis.

A compression fracture occurs when the bone is crushed or pressed together, often resulting in loss of height in the bone. This type of fracture is commonly seen in osteoporotic bones. Treatment involves stabilizing the bone and managing pain.
Compression fractures can be caused by osteoporosis, trauma inflicted on the back, and tumors that have started in the bone. Tumors that occur in the spine also cause compression fractures.
A compression fracture occurs when the bones are broken due to some type of trauma. Usually, the trauma, has to be quite large in order to break the bone.
Treatment for a compression fracture of the L2 vertebra typically involves a combination of rest, pain management with medication, physical therapy, and possibly a brace to support the spine. In some cases, surgery may be necessary to stabilize the fracture, especially if there is neurological involvement or the fracture is severe. It is important to follow your healthcare provider's recommendations for the best outcome.
