The ICD-10 code for osteosarcoma of the left femoral head is C40.2, which falls under the category of malignant neoplasms of the bones and joints. Specifically, C40.2 refers to malignant neoplasms of the long bones, including the femur. Always consult the latest coding guidelines or a medical professional for the most accurate coding.

What is osseous spurring of the femoral head?
Osseous spurring of the femoral head refers to the development of bony projections or outgrowths on the surface of the femoral head, which is the ball-shaped top of the thigh bone (femur). This can occur due to conditions like osteoarthritis, leading to joint pain, restricted movement, and potential joint deformity.
What type of femoral fractures in adults is most likely to result in a vascular necrosis of the femoral head?
Femoral neck fractures in adults, particularly those that are intracapsular, are most likely to result in avascular necrosis of the femoral head. This is due to the disruption of the medial and lateral femoral circumflex arteries that supply blood to the head of the femur. The risk increases with the degree of displacement and the age of the patient, as older individuals have a reduced capacity for healing and vascular supply. Prompt diagnosis and appropriate management are crucial to minimize the risk of necrosis.
What is the name of the socket that holds the head of the femur?
The "socket" for the femoral head is called the acetabulum.
What is the medical term meaning congenital absence of the head?
Proximal femoral focal deficiency.
Is the femoral region proximal to the plantar region?
No, the femur is closer to the head than tarsals
What are the lateral and medial femoral circumflex arteries?
The lateral and medial femoral circumflex arteries are branches of the profunda femoris (deep femoral) artery, supplying blood to the hip joint and surrounding musculature. The lateral femoral circumflex artery primarily supplies the greater trochanter and the gluteal region, while the medial femoral circumflex artery mainly supplies the head and neck of the femur. Both arteries form an anastomosis around the femoral neck, contributing to the vascularization of the hip joint. Their integrity is crucial for maintaining the health of the hip and preventing conditions like avascular necrosis.
What is a word starting with the letter F in the circulatory system?

What artery supplies blood to the head of the femur?
Medial Femoral Circumflex... Without this artery blood supply to the head of the femur is cut off and the head of the femur will die
What does Deformity and sclerotic change involving bilateral femoral head are seen. What does this mean?
This means the part of the "hip" joint that attaches to your pelvis (the ball shaped bit) found in your thigh has become whitened and deformed, due to some sort of damage. This could be from normal ageing osteoarthritis or obesity leading to a damaged femoral head.
