S52.131D
ICD-10-CMDisplaced fracture of neck of right radius, subsequent encounter for closed fracture with routine healing
This code signifies a fracture of the neck of the right radius where the bone fragments are no longer in their normal alignment. This specific code is used when the patient is seen for follow-up care of this fracture, and it is being managed non-surgically (closed treatment) with an expectation of routine healing.
Apply this code for follow-up visits where a patient with a previously diagnosed displaced right radial neck fracture is receiving ongoing conservative management. This includes appointments for cast changes, wound checks, or clinical assessment of healing progress without complications. It is appropriate when the fracture is healing as expected without any setbacks.
