Disp fx of medial cuneiform of right foot, sequela

This code signifies a past fracture of the medial cuneiform bone in the right foot that was displaced at the time of injury, and the patient is now experiencing a long-term complication or residual effect directly attributable to that previous fracture. These sequelae can include chronic pain, deformity, nonunion, malunion, or functional limitations.

Apply this code when documenting a patient encounter for a condition that is a direct consequence of a previously healed or non-healing displaced fracture of the right medial cuneiform. This is appropriate for follow-up visits addressing ongoing issues related to the old injury, rather than the initial acute fracture.

• Always ensure documentation clearly links the current condition to the prior displaced right medial cuneiform fracture.
• Do not use this code for the initial acute fracture or for a subsequent injury to the same site.
• Consider additional codes for specific sequelae (e.g., M20.1- for hallux valgus due to fracture, M25.571 for chronic pain in right foot).
