S72.436D
ICD-10-CMNondisplaced fracture of medial condyle of unspecified femur, subsequent encounter for closed fracture with routine healing
This code signifies a follow-up visit for a fracture of the inner part of the lower thigh bone, where the bone fragments are still in their normal alignment. The fracture is closed, meaning the skin is intact, and it is healing as expected without complications. This code indicates that the initial treatment has already been rendered.
This code is appropriate for subsequent encounters, such as office visits or follow-up imaging, where a patient is being monitored for a nondisplaced medial condyle femoral fracture that is progressing through routine healing. It would be used after the initial treatment and stabilization of the fracture.
