M84.757A
ICD-10-CMComplete oblique atypical femoral fracture, right leg, initial encounter for fracture
This code signifies a complete, oblique fracture of the right femur that is considered atypical, often associated with long-term bisphosphonate use. It indicates a fracture that extends through the entire bone cortex, occurring at an unusual angle.
Apply this code for a patient presenting with a newly diagnosed, complete oblique atypical femoral fracture of the right leg. Documentation should clearly specify "atypical" or "bisphosphonate-related" fracture, the oblique nature, and laterality. This code is appropriate for the initial treatment phase of the fracture.
