S82.135P
ICD-10-CMNondisplaced fracture of medial condyle of left tibia, subsequent encounter for closed fracture with malunion
This code signifies a previously diagnosed fracture of the inner bony prominence of the left shin bone, specifically one that was not displaced at the time of injury. The current encounter addresses the ongoing management of this fracture, which has healed in an imperfect alignment.
Apply this code when a patient presents for follow-up care of a left tibial medial condyle fracture that was initially nondisplaced but has now developed malunion. This includes scenarios like cast changes, physical therapy evaluations, or imaging to assess the malunion during the healing phase.
