S72.434N
ICD-10-CMNondisplaced fracture of medial condyle of right femur, subsequent encounter for open fracture type IIIA, IIIB, or IIIC with nonunion
This code signifies a non-displaced fracture of the inner bony prominence at the lower end of the right thigh bone. The patient is in a follow-up phase of care, and the original injury was an open fracture (skin broken) classified as a severe Type IIIA, IIIB, or IIIC, which has failed to heal properly (nonunion).
Apply this code when documenting ongoing treatment for a patient with a previously sustained, severe open fracture of the right medial femoral condyle that is not healing as expected. This is appropriate for subsequent visits related to managing the nonunion of this specific fracture type.
