ICD-10-CMNondisplaced fracture of medial condyle of right femur, initial encounter for open fracture type I or II
This code signifies a break in the inner bony prominence at the lower end of the right thigh bone that has not shifted from its normal anatomical position. The fracture is classified as an open fracture, meaning there is a wound communicating with the fracture site, and is categorized as Type I or Type II based on the Gustilo-Anderson classification. This code is specifically for the initial treatment of such an injury.
Use this code for a patient presenting with a newly diagnosed, non-displaced open fracture of the medial condyle of the right femur, where the open wound is relatively clean (Type I) or has moderate soft tissue damage (Type II). This applies to the initial surgical or non-surgical management of the fracture.
