Disp fx of med condyle of r femr, 7thM

This code signifies a non-healing fracture of the inner part of the right thigh bone, which was initially an open fracture (meaning the bone broke through the skin) of either Type I or Type II severity. The fracture fragments are no longer in their proper alignment. This code is used during follow-up care for this specific complication.

This code is appropriate for documenting subsequent encounters for a patient who has previously undergone treatment for an open fracture of the medial condyle of the right femur, and the fracture has failed to heal properly (nonunion). This would be used when the patient is receiving ongoing management for the nonunion, such as during clinic visits for monitoring, cast changes, or preparation for revision surgery.

• Ensure documentation clearly specifies "nonunion" and that the initial fracture was an "open fracture type I or II."
• Verify the laterality (right femur) and the specific anatomical site (medial condyle).
• This code is for subsequent encounters; an initial encounter for this nonunion would use a different code.
