Postprocedural membranous urethral stricture, male.

Use this code to report a membranous urethral stricture that occurs as a direct result of a prior medical procedure. Do not use this code for strictures due to other causes, such as trauma or infection.

Medical necessity for treatment of a postprocedural membranous urethral stricture is established by the presence of symptoms such as urinary obstruction, recurrent urinary tract infections, or other complications related to the stricture.

Diagnosis and management of this condition are typically handled by urologists.

In simple words: A narrowing of the part of the urethra that passes through the urogenital diaphragm in males, which has developed as a complication after a medical procedure.

Several weeks later, he presents with obstructive urinary symptoms.A membranous urethral stricture is found to be a postprocedural complication.

Documentation should include details of the preceding procedure, the presence and location of the stricture (membranous urethra), and associated symptoms.Imaging studies such as retrograde urethrogram or voiding cystourethrogram are typically used to confirm the diagnosis.
