Unspecified superficial injury of penis, sequela

This code signifies a past, resolved superficial injury to the penis where the specific nature of the original injury is not documented. It indicates that the patient is now experiencing a residual effect or complication directly attributable to that prior injury.

Use this code when a patient presents with a current condition (e.g., scar tissue, chronic pain, altered sensation) that is a direct consequence of a previously sustained, unspecified superficial injury to the penis. This applies when the original injury has healed, but its long-term effects are being addressed.

• Always use an additional code to identify the specific nature of the sequela (e.g., scar, chronic pain).
• Ensure documentation clearly links the current condition to a past superficial penile injury.
• Avoid using this code for acute injuries; it is strictly for sequelae.
