S52.135D
ICD-10-CMNondisplaced fracture of neck of left radius, subsequent encounter for closed fracture with routine healing
This code signifies a follow-up visit for a patient who sustained a fracture to the neck of their left radius. The fracture is not displaced, meaning the bone fragments are still in their normal anatomical alignment, and the healing process is progressing as expected without complications.
This code is appropriate for subsequent encounters where a patient with a previously diagnosed, nondisplaced left radial neck fracture is being monitored for routine healing. This includes appointments for cast changes, follow-up X-rays to assess callus formation, or clinical evaluations during the expected recovery period for a closed fracture.
