Nondisp suprcndl fx w intrcndl extn low end r femr, 7thG

This code signifies a fracture of the lower end of the right femur, specifically above the condyles, that also extends into the condyles themselves. The bone fragments are still in their normal anatomical position (nondisplaced), and the patient is in a later stage of healing where the fracture is not uniting as quickly as expected.

Apply this code when documenting follow-up care for a patient with a previously diagnosed nondisplaced supracondylar fracture with intracondylar extension of the right femur. This is appropriate when the physician notes delayed healing, indicating the fracture is taking longer than anticipated to mend.

• Ensure documentation explicitly states "nondisplaced" and "intracondylar extension" for accurate code selection.
• Verify the encounter is for subsequent care and that delayed healing is clearly documented.
• Confirm laterality (right femur) is specified in the medical record.
