Nondisp fx of medial wall of left acetabulum, init

This code signifies a break in the inner wall of the left hip socket (acetabulum) that has not shifted out of its normal anatomical position. It indicates that the fracture is being treated for the first time and the skin over the fracture site remains intact.

Apply this code for patients presenting with an acute, non-displaced fracture of the medial wall of the left acetabulum, such as those resulting from a fall or direct trauma to the hip. This code is appropriate for the initial visit where definitive treatment for the closed fracture is planned or initiated.

• Ensure documentation specifies "nondisplaced" and "medial wall" of the left acetabulum.
• Confirm the encounter is for the initial treatment of the fracture.
• Verify the fracture is "closed" (skin intact) before assigning this code.
