Disp fx of greater trochanter of r femr, 7thE

This code signifies a fracture of the prominent bony projection on the upper part of the right thigh bone (femur), specifically the greater trochanter, where the bone fragments are no longer in their normal alignment. It indicates that the fracture broke through the skin, classified as either Type I or Type II, and is currently healing without complications during a follow-up visit.

Apply this code for a patient presenting for a follow-up visit for an open fracture of the right greater trochanter that was initially displaced. This code is appropriate when the wound is healing routinely, and the open fracture was documented as Gustilo-Anderson Type I or II.

• Ensure documentation specifies "right" femur and "greater trochanter" for anatomical accuracy.
• Confirm the fracture is explicitly documented as "displaced" and "open type I or II."
• This code is for subsequent encounters where routine healing is observed; do not use for initial treatment or delayed/nonunion healing.
