ICD-10-CMNondisplaced fracture of medial condyle of left femur, subsequent encounter for open fracture type I or II with nonunion
This code signifies a non-displaced break in the inner portion of the lower left thigh bone, specifically the medial condyle. It indicates that the fracture was initially an open fracture (Type I or II) and is now being treated for a nonunion, meaning the bone fragments have failed to heal together.
This code is appropriate for follow-up encounters where a patient with a previously diagnosed open medial condyle fracture of the left femur (Type I or II) is being managed for a confirmed nonunion. This would include visits for ongoing treatment, assessment of healing progress, or planning for further intervention due to the nonunion.
