Disp fx of med condyle of l tibia, 7thH

This code signifies a fracture of the inner part of the left knee's lower leg bone (tibia) that is no longer in its proper alignment. It specifically indicates that this is a follow-up visit for an open fracture (where the bone broke through the skin) classified as type I or II, and the healing process is taking longer than expected.

Apply this code when documenting a patient's subsequent visit for an open medial tibial condyle fracture (Gustilo-Anderson type I or II) that is displaced and exhibiting delayed union. This would be used after the initial treatment and during ongoing management of the fracture's healing.

• Ensure documentation clearly specifies "displaced" and "medial condyle" of the left tibia.
• Verify the encounter is for "subsequent care" and the fracture was initially an "open fracture type I or II."
• Confirm the medical record explicitly states "delayed healing" or "delayed union" for accurate code assignment.
