S42.294P
ICD-10-CMOther nondisplaced fracture of upper end of right humerus, subsequent encounter for fracture with malunion
This code signifies a fracture in the upper part of the right humerus that was not initially displaced but has subsequently healed improperly, resulting in a malunion. The patient is currently receiving care for this specific complication of the fracture.
Use this code when documenting follow-up care for a patient whose previously sustained, non-displaced right proximal humerus fracture has healed in an anatomically incorrect position. This applies to encounters where the malunion itself is being addressed or monitored.
