ICD-10-CMDisplaced fracture of medial condyle of right femur, subsequent encounter for closed fracture with nonunion
This code signifies a follow-up visit for a patient who previously sustained a fracture of the inner portion of the right thigh bone, near the knee. The fracture fragments are no longer in their correct anatomical alignment, and the bone has failed to heal properly despite the fracture being treated without surgical incision.
This code is appropriate for subsequent encounters when a patient with a displaced medial condyle fracture of the right femur is being managed for a nonunion, and the fracture was initially treated non-surgically (e.g., casting, bracing). This includes visits for monitoring, imaging, or planning further intervention for the nonunion.
