Disp fx of med condyle of unsp tibia, 7thE

This code describes a fracture of the inner bony prominence of the shin bone (tibia) that has shifted from its normal alignment. The fracture broke through the skin (open fracture type I or II) and the patient is now receiving follow-up care during the routine healing phase.

This code is appropriate for subsequent encounters when a patient with a previously diagnosed displaced open medial tibial condyle fracture (Type I or II) is undergoing routine follow-up. This includes visits for cast changes, wound checks, or physical therapy during the expected healing period. It should be used when there are no complications or delayed healing.

• Ensure the documentation specifies a "displaced" fracture of the "medial condyle" of the tibia.
• Verify the initial injury was an "open fracture type I or II" and the current encounter is for "routine healing."
• Do not use this code for initial treatment or for encounters involving delayed healing, nonunion, or malunion.
