S72.454Q
ICD-10-CMNondisplaced supracondylar fracture without intracondylar extension of lower end of right femur, subsequent encounter for open fracture type I or II with malunion
This code describes a follow-up encounter for a right femur fracture located above the condyles, without extension into the joint, that was initially an open fracture (Type I or II) and has healed improperly (malunion). The fracture itself is currently in a nondisplaced position.
This code is appropriate for documenting subsequent care for a patient who previously sustained an open supracondylar fracture of the right femur, where the fracture has now healed with malunion. This could include evaluations for pain, limited range of motion, or planning for corrective surgery related to the malunion.
