ICD-10-CMOther osteoporosis with current pathological fracture, unspecified pelvis, subsequent encounter for fracture with nonunion
This code signifies a patient diagnosed with osteoporosis, specifically of a type other than age-related or drug-induced, who has sustained a pathological fracture in an unspecified part of the pelvis. The fracture is currently experiencing nonunion, meaning it has failed to heal properly, and the patient is presenting for follow-up care after the initial treatment.
Apply this code when documentation confirms a diagnosis of osteoporosis (not senile or drug-induced) and a pelvic fracture that occurred due to the underlying bone fragility. The encounter must be for ongoing management of the fracture's nonunion, following the initial treatment phase. Supporting documentation would include imaging reports confirming nonunion and physician notes detailing the osteoporosis etiology and fracture site.
