In simple words: This code describes pain caused by problems with devices, implants, or grafts in the urinary or reproductive organs. This could be pain from a device itself, or from the body reacting to it.
This code classifies pain experienced as a direct consequence of genitourinary prosthetic devices, implants, or grafts.It encompasses pain stemming from the presence, malfunction, or rejection of these medical devices within the genitourinary system.This excludes pain related to failure or rejection of transplanted organs or tissues.
Example 1: A 65-year-old male patient experiences chronic pelvic pain after receiving a penile implant for erectile dysfunction. The pain is attributed to the implant itself. , A 40-year-old female patient reports significant lower abdominal pain several months after a bladder augmentation surgery with mesh placement. The pain is associated with the mesh material. , A 70-year-old male presents with urethral pain and discomfort after undergoing a urethral stent insertion for urinary obstruction. The pain directly relates to the presence of the stent.
Detailed patient history describing the onset and character of pain.Specify type of prosthetic device, implant, or graft.Include details of the surgical procedure (if applicable), including date and type of device.Relevant imaging studies or other diagnostic findings.Physician's assessment and plan of care.
** This code is intended for pain specifically related to the device, implant or graft.Pain from other causes (e.g., infection, unrelated injury) should be coded separately.Consider using additional codes to specify the location of the pain (e.g., in the bladder, urethra, etc.), if possible.
