Disp fx of med condyle of r tibia, 7thH

This code describes a fracture of the inner part of the right shin bone, specifically the medial condyle, which has shifted out of its normal alignment. It indicates that the fracture was initially an open fracture (meaning the skin was broken) of either Type I or II, and the patient is now in a later stage of healing where the bone union is progressing slower than expected.

Apply this code when documenting a patient's follow-up visit for a previously treated open fracture of the right tibial medial condyle that is experiencing delayed healing. This is appropriate for subsequent encounters after the initial treatment, where the focus is on monitoring the slow healing process of the open fracture.

• Ensure documentation specifies "delayed healing" for the subsequent encounter.
• Verify the initial fracture was an open fracture, Type I or II, of the right tibial medial condyle.
• This code is for subsequent encounters, not the initial treatment of the fracture.
