Nondisp fx of less tuberosity of l humer, 7thK

This code signifies a non-displaced break in the lesser tuberosity of the left humerus that has failed to heal properly. The patient is presenting for ongoing treatment of this ununited fracture.

Apply this code when a patient with a previously diagnosed non-displaced lesser tuberosity fracture of the left humerus is seen for follow-up care, and imaging or clinical assessment confirms the fracture has not achieved bony union. This typically involves continued management, such as further conservative treatment, surgical planning, or evaluation of complications related to the nonunion.

• Ensure documentation clearly states "nonunion" and specifies the "lesser tuberosity" of the "left humerus."
• Verify the fracture is explicitly documented as "nondisplaced."
• Confirm this is a "subsequent encounter" for the fracture, not the initial treatment.
