Displacement of other urinary devices and implants, sequela

This code indicates a long-term complication or late effect resulting from the displacement of a urinary device or implant other than a catheter or prosthetic. This could include issues arising months or years after the initial displacement event, such as chronic pain, recurrent infections, or organ damage directly attributable to the past displacement.

Apply this code when documenting a condition that is a direct consequence of a previously displaced urinary device or implant, and the acute phase of the displacement has resolved. This is appropriate for follow-up encounters where the patient is being treated for sequelae, not the active displacement itself.

• Always use this code as a secondary diagnosis, following the code for the specific sequela being treated.
• Ensure documentation clearly links the current condition to a past displacement of a urinary device or implant.
• Do not use for active displacement; refer to the acute displacement codes within the T83.12- category for current events.
