Contusion of other urinary and pelvic organ, init encntr

This code signifies a bruise or blunt injury to a urinary or pelvic organ other than the bladder, kidney, ureter, or urethra. This type of injury results from direct trauma without a break in the skin or underlying tissue.

Use this code for initial encounters involving contusions of organs such as the prostate, seminal vesicles, vas deferens, epididymis, fallopian tubes, ovaries, uterus, or vagina. This applies when the patient is receiving active treatment for the injury.

• Ensure the documentation specifies a contusion and not a laceration or rupture.
• Verify the specific urinary or pelvic organ involved is not one with a more specific contusion code (e.g., bladder, kidney).
• Confirm this is the initial encounter for the injury; subsequent care would use a different seventh character.
