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.
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.
