S72.464Q
ICD-10-CMNondisplaced supracondylar fracture with intracondylar extension of lower end of right femur, subsequent encounter for open fracture type I or II with malunion
This code signifies a follow-up encounter for a right femur fracture located above the condyles, extending into the condyles, that was initially an open fracture (Type I or II) and has subsequently healed incorrectly (malunion). The fracture itself is not displaced, meaning the bone fragments are still in their normal anatomical alignment despite the malunion.
Use this code for patients presenting for ongoing care, evaluation, or treatment of a malunited, nondisplaced supracondylar fracture with intracondylar extension of the right femur, where the initial injury was an open fracture (Type I or II). This applies to situations such as follow-up appointments for pain management, assessment of function, or planning for corrective surgery related to the malunion.
