S72.434R
ICD-10-CMNondisplaced 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 fracture of the inner portion of the right thigh bone's lower end that was initially an open fracture (skin broken) of a severe type (IIIA, IIIB, or IIIC). The fracture fragments have healed in an unsatisfactory position, leading to malunion, and the patient is presenting for follow-up care related to this complication.
Use this code when documenting a patient visit for ongoing management or evaluation of a malunited, nondisplaced medial condyle fracture of the right femur, where the original injury was a severe open fracture. This applies to situations where the malunion is the primary focus of the current encounter, such as planning for corrective surgery or assessing functional limitations.
