Nondisp fx of lateral condyle of l humer, 7thP

This code signifies a healing fracture of the outer portion of the left elbow bone (humerus) that is not properly aligned (malunion) but is not displaced. It indicates that the patient is in a subsequent phase of care for this specific fracture complication.

Apply this code when documenting follow-up care for a patient whose left humeral lateral condyle fracture has healed in a misaligned position. This is appropriate for encounters where the malunion is being monitored or managed, and the fracture itself is no longer acute but has not yet fully united correctly.

• Ensure documentation clearly specifies "left" humerus and "lateral condyle."
• Verify that the fracture is described as "nondisplaced" and the complication is "malunion."
• Confirm this is a subsequent encounter, not the initial treatment for the fracture.
