Disp fx of med condyle of unsp femr, 7thG

This code signifies a fracture of the inner portion of the lower thigh bone (femur) that has shifted out of its normal alignment. The patient is in a later stage of treatment for this fracture, and the bone is not healing at the expected rate, but the skin over the fracture site remains intact.

Apply this code when documenting follow-up care for a patient with a medial femoral condyle fracture that was initially treated conservatively or surgically, and imaging or clinical assessment indicates delayed union. This is appropriate for subsequent encounters where the fracture is still considered closed and the primary concern is the slow healing process.

• Ensure documentation clearly states "delayed healing" for the closed fracture.
• Verify the fracture is specifically of the medial condyle and not another part of the femur.
• Confirm this is a subsequent encounter, not the initial treatment phase.
