S72.431A
ICD-10-CMDisplaced fracture of medial condyle of right femur, initial encounter for closed fracture
This code signifies a break in the inner portion of the lower right thigh bone, specifically the medial condyle, where the bone fragments are no longer in their normal alignment. This injury is being treated for the first time, and the skin over the fracture site remains intact.
Apply this code for a patient presenting with a newly diagnosed, non-surgical (or initial surgical) displaced fracture of the medial condyle of the right femur, where there is no open wound communicating with the fracture. This would be used for the initial treatment phase, such as casting, reduction, or initial hospitalization.
