S42.144G
ICD-10-CMNondisplaced fracture of glenoid cavity of scapula, right shoulder, subsequent encounter for fracture with delayed healing
This code signifies a fracture of the glenoid cavity, the socket of the shoulder joint, on the right side, where the bone fragments remain in their normal anatomical position. The "subsequent encounter" indicates that the patient is receiving follow-up care for this fracture, and "delayed healing" specifies that the fracture is not mending at the expected rate.
Use this code for a patient presenting for ongoing management of a right glenoid cavity fracture that is not displaced, and where the physician explicitly documents delayed healing. This would apply to follow-up appointments, imaging studies, or interventions related to the slow healing process of this specific fracture.
