S72.431R
ICD-10-CMDisplaced fracture of medial condyle of right femur, subsequent encounter for open fracture type IIIA, IIIB, or IIIC with malunion
This code signifies a previously treated, but now improperly healed (malunion), open fracture of the inner portion of the right thigh bone's lower end. The original injury was a severe open fracture (Type IIIA, IIIB, or IIIC), meaning there was significant soft tissue damage and bone exposure.
This code is appropriate for encounters where a patient is being treated for a malunion of a right medial femoral condyle fracture that was initially an open fracture of a severe type. This would include follow-up visits, evaluations for corrective surgery, or management of complications arising from the malunion.
