    "description": "Surgical repair of a broken wrist at the far end of the radius, where the fracture runs into the joint surface and has shattered into three or more pieces. The bone is exposed, the fragments are lifted back into alignment, and plates, screws, or pins hold them there. It sits at the top of a graded family: simpler breaks that stay outside the joint, or that split the joint into just two pieces, are reported with neighboring codes.",
