S52.201F
ICD-10-CMUnspecified fracture of shaft of right ulna, subsequent encounter for open fracture type IIIA, IIIB, or IIIC with routine healing
This code signifies a fracture of the shaft of the right ulna where the specific type of fracture (e.g., transverse, oblique) is not documented. It indicates that the fracture is an open fracture of Gustilo-Anderson type IIIA, IIIB, or IIIC, and the patient is in a subsequent phase of care with expected routine healing.
This code is appropriate for follow-up encounters for patients with a previously diagnosed open right ulnar shaft fracture (Gustilo-Anderson type IIIA, IIIB, or IIIC) that is progressing as expected. It should be used when the initial fracture type of the ulnar shaft was not specified in the documentation.
