ICD-10-CMNondisplaced midcervical fracture of left femur, subsequent encounter for open fracture type I or II with nonunion
This code describes a situation where a patient has a non-displaced fracture in the middle part of their left femur's neck, and this is a follow-up visit. The initial injury was an open fracture, specifically classified as Type I or Type II, and the fracture is now failing to heal properly (nonunion).
This code is used for subsequent encounters when a patient with a previously diagnosed midcervical left femur fracture, initially an open Type I or II, is being treated for nonunion. This applies to ongoing management, assessment, or intervention related to the delayed or failed healing of the fracture.
