S32.461S (Displaced associated transverse-posterior fracture of right acetabulum, sequela) compared with S32.462S (Displaced associated transverse-posterior fracture of left acetabulum, sequela), from the official CMS tabular data. S32.461S and S32.462S code the same condition on opposite sides.
Same condition; these differ only in which side is documented.
These codes share a category and title and differ only in the side affected. The documentation decides which applies, and a bilateral code is reported only where the code set provides one.
